 For example, the disturbance workflow detects **spectral canopy change**, not harvesting directly. A strong decrease in NBR may indicate harvesting, but it may also result from fire, windthrow, insect damage, road construction, flooding, wetland change, residual cloud or shadow, or sensor artifacts.
