Assessing the Direct Impact of Typhoons on Vegetation Canopy Structure and Photosynthesis by Yaoyao Zheng, Simin Zhan, Zaichun Zhu, Sen Cao, Jiana Chen, Pengjun Zhao, Weimin Wang, Ranga B. Myneni

“…We developed random forest models based on satellite-observed leaf area index (LAI) and environmental data during typhoon-free periods to simulate LAI under non-typhoon conditions. The simulated LAI time series was then compared with the satellite-observed typhoon-affected LAI to assess the typhoon-induced canopy loss and recovery, which was then used to estimate the typhoon-caused photosynthesis loss and recovery with 2 widely used light-use efficiency models. …”
