AB  - 3254 reservoirs in China provide a total of 512 attributes. These attributes are provided in the upstream catchment area of the reservoir, including:  1) There are two types of upstream catchment areas for reservoirs, namely the complete catchment area and the intermediate catchment area,  2) Watershed topography,  3) Human activities,  4) Climate,  5) Land cover and utilization,  6) Soil and geology.  We also generated time series of 15 meteorological variables. A large dataset on reservoir storage anomalies (92% of data from 3254 reservoirs), water levels (20%), evaporation (98%), and water bodies (99%) is also provided from multiple sources of satellites - radar/laser satellite altimeters+satellite images from Landsat+Sentinel-2. Verifiation_figures records all validation, time series of numbers, and statistical indicators of water level, water area, and storage changes.
