Water and energy fluxes measurements over a riparian Tamarix spp. stand in the lower Tarim River basin, northwestern China

<p>This dataset includes water and energy fluxes measurements&nbsp;over&nbsp;a riparian <em>Tamarix spp.</em> stand in the lower Tarim River basin, northwestern China. &nbsp;Details of field site and measurements can be found in the paper:&nbsp;Yuan, G., P. Zhang, M.-a. Shao, Y. Luo, and X. Zhu (2014),&nbsp; 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.</p> <p>This dataset also accompanies the published paper&nbsp;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. &nbsp;With this dataset, we tested the Noah-MP land surface model with implementation of&nbsp;a soil moisture-responsive root dynamics scheme (VOM-ROOT).&nbsp;</p>
