This data set can extract the meteorological information of glaciers and study the mass balance of glaciers.The hydrological point of Glacier No.1 is located on the river channel 300m away from the end of Glacier No.1. The ice and snow runoff of Glacier No.1 is monitored. The elevation of the section is 3659m, and the drainage area is 3.34km2, of which the glacier area is 1.74km2. It is a concrete rectangular section (1.0m high and 1.6m wide), and the meteorological field is set on the left bank of the section.The hydrological point of the air ice bucket is located on the left side of the source area of the Urumqi River, with the mouth of the bucket facing south. It is used to observe the runoff of snow and permafrost melt water in the high mountain area. The elevation of the section is 3805m, and the drainage area is 1.68km2. It is a concrete rectangular section (1.0m high and 1.0m wide). The meteorological field is located on the right bank of the section.
