Surface temperature data for the study area of each hydropower station in dry-hot and non-dry-hot valleys

The dataset includes the temperature data of each hydropower
station in different seasons and the daily surface
temperature data at an elevation of 0 cm.

The temperature data of hydropower stations is the surface
temperature data of the study area in the wet season and the dry season before
and after the construction of each hydropower station. The hydropower stations
include Liyuan hydropower station and Ahai hydropower station in the dry-hot
valley, Jinghong hydropower station and Laxiwa hydropower station in
non-dry-hot valley. Based on the Landsat thermal infrared data, the surface
temperature data were retrieved by atmospheric correction method. The data is
used to calculate the temperature difference (relative temperature) between the
reservoir and the downstream river of the dam and the temperature difference
between the reservoir and the surrounding area.

the daily surface temperature data at an elevation
of 0 cm
belongs to meteorological station data, which comes from China Meteorological
data network. It was used to verify the accuracy of temperature inversion and
calculate the annual average temperature of each study area in 2003, 2004,
2005, 2017, 2018 and 2019.
