An in situ observation datset of soil hydraulic properties and soil moisture in a high and cold mountainous area on the northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

<p>Based on soil profile data at depths of 5 cm and 25 cm from 238 sampling sites, and on soil data from 32 soil moisture&nbsp;monitoring stations at depths of 5 cm, 15 cm, 25 cm, 40 cm, and 60 cm, we have compiled a soil hydraulic properties and soil moisture&nbsp;dataset for a high and cold mountainous area, Northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Specifically, the soil&nbsp;hydraulic properties include&nbsp;clay, silt, sand, soil organic carbon, soil saturated hydraulic conductivity, soil water retention curve parameters&nbsp;(Van Genuchten model) and&nbsp;soil bulk density.</p>
