Dataset Information

Daily precipitation dataset at 0.1° for the Yarlung Zangbo River basin from 2001 to 2015.

ABSTRACT: In order to obtain higher precision regional precipitation dataset in the Yarlung Zangbo River basin, two different schemes were proposed on the basis of the two most application potential satellite-based precipitation products, IMERG and CMORPH_BLD. The first method aimed to correct the positive error of IMERG based on high correlation (CC > 0.9) between IMERG and gauges. The second algorithm was developed to merge IMERG with CMORPH_BLD by the stepwise linear regression. As the reference, IMERG played a key role in correction of precipitation ratio determination and precipitation event detection. Two daily datasets with 0.1° resolution (BRD_IMERG and IGREA_IMERG-CMORPH) performed better than IMERG in CC, RMSE, ME, FAR and CSI, and streamflow simulation in the whole basin (NS: 0.86 and 0.87; RBIAS: -19% and -11%) and sub-basins. The two proposed methods were relatively simple and efficient for reconstructing higher precision regional precipitation, and the datasets provided a good application demonstration in the alpine region.

Project description:BackgroundDietary intake and nutritional assessing data from a representative sample of adult population living in an agricultural zone on Tibet Plateau are still lacking nowadays. This study aimed to assess the daily dietary intakes and respective food sources in 552 local residents (≥ 18 years old, 277 men and 275 women) living in 14 agricultural counties along the Yarlung Zangbo River on Tibet Plateau.MethodsFood consumption data were collected using a validated cultural-specific food frequency questionnaire that contained all local Tibetan foods and analyzed with three fixed factors: gender, age, and region. Nutrient intakes were calculated using Chinese food composition tables. Nutritional gaps and the percentages of participants who had inadequate and excessive nutrient intakes were calculated by estimated average requirement (EAR) cut-point methods.ResultsCompared with the dietary reference intakes, 68.4% of nutrient intakes were inadequate. Fiber, Ca, I, Zn, Se, and vitamin (Va, Vc, and folic acid) intakes appeared to be particularly deficient. The dietary energy intake was 7838.8 ± 537.1 KJ/d, with 78 and 84% of EAR values for men and women, respectively. The dietary intakes of most nutrients were below the estimated energy requirement/EAR or adequate intake values, while more than 70% of the participants had excessive intake of carbohydrate, especially the elderly (aged ≥ 51 years). The nutritional gap of Cu was more than 300%. Almost 100% of the participants was vulnerable to fiber, Se, and Va shortfalls due to the deficiency in sole food sources. The top five food sources of Se intake were highland barley (34.2%), meat (13%), rice (12.4%), eggs (12.2%), and cultural-specific beverages (7.8%). Eggs (42.1%), tubers (62.2%), vegetables (66.4%), and highland barley (49.7%) were the first contributors of Va, Ve, Vc, and folic acid, respectively.ConclusionThe dietary intake of a large sample of Tibetan adult population living in agricultural counties of Tibetan Autonomous Region is alarmingly insufficient. Gender inequality is common, and regional difference is widespread due to rapid urbanization. Young Tibetan adults aged 18-30 years are particularly vulnerable to micronutrient shortfalls and currently facing the risk of nutrition-insecurity-related dietary inadequacy. The respondents who belong to the elderly category (≥51 years of age) are facing the risk of "double burden of malnutrition" characterized by the coexistence of undernutrition, including micronutrient deficiencies and overweight or obesity.
