The dataset consists of two Excel files: First, the "Main Stream Control Hydrological Stations" file records the annual average sediment concentration values for various river segments at important hydrological stations on the main stream of the Yellow River Basin from 2015 to 2019; Second, the "Important Tributary Control Hydrological Stations" file records the annual average sediment concentration values for various river segments at important hydrological stations on the tributaries from 2015 to 2019.2. Attribute Information: (1) River Name: The name of the river in the area controlled by the hydrological station (only exists in the important tributary hydrological control stations); (2) Hydrological Control Station: Important control hydrological stations in the Yellow River Basin; (3) Controlled Basin Area: The area controlled by the hydrological control station (unit: ten thousand km2); (4) Annual Average Sediment Concentration: The average sediment concentration per cubic meter of water in the area controlled by the hydrological station (unit: kg/m3).
