Description

This dataset includes water and energy fluxes measurements over a riparian Tamarix spp. stand in the lower Tarim River basin, northwestern China.  Details of field site and measurements can be found in the paper: Yuan, G., P. Zhang, M.-a. Shao, Y. Luo, and X. Zhu (2014),  Energy and water exchanges over a riparian Tamarix spp. stand in the lower Tarim River basin under a hyper-arid climate, Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 194(0), 144-154.

This dataset also accompanies the published paper in the Water Resources Research: Implementing Dynamic Root Optimization in Noah‐MP for Simulating Phreatophytic Root Water Uptake. Water Resources Research 54(3), 1560-1575.  With this dataset, we tested the Noah-MP land surface model with implementation of a soil moisture-responsive root dynamics scheme (VOM-ROOT).
