英文摘要 | As the largest river basin of the Tibetan Plateau, the upper Brahmaputra River basin (also called Yarlung Zangbo in Chinese) has profound impacts on the water security of local and downstream inhabitants. Precipitation in the basin is mainly controlled by the Indian summer monsoon and westerly and is the key to understanding the water resources available in the basin; however, due to sparse observational data constrained by a harsh environment and complex topography, there remains a lack of reliable information on basin-wide precipitation (there are only nine national meteorological stations with continuous observations). To improve the accuracy of basin-wide precipitation data, we integrate various gauge, satellite, and reanalysis precipitation datasets, including GLDAS, ITP-Forcing, MERRA2, TRMM, and CMA datasets, to develop a new precipitation product for the 1981-2016 period over the upper Brahmaputra River basin, at 3 h and 5 km resolution. The new product has been rigorously validated at different temporal scales (e.g., extreme events, daily to monthly variability, and long-term trends) and spatial scales (point and basin scale) with gauge precipitation observations, showing much improved accuracies compared to previous products. An improved hydrological simulation has been achieved (low relative bias: - 5.94 %; highest Nash-Sutcliffe coefficient of efficiency (NSE): 0.643) with the new precipitation inputs, showing reliability and potential for multidisciplinary studies. This new precipitation product is openly accessible at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3711155 (Wang et al., 2020) and additionally at the National Tibetan Plateau Data Center (https://data.tpdc.ac.cn , last access: 10 July 2020, login required). |
