Reconstructed county-level dataset of crop area affected by typhoons in coastal China from 1980 to 2022

This is a reconstructed county-level dataset of typhoon-affected crop areas across China's coastal regions (Shandong, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan) from 1980 to 2022. Data used in this study included meteorological data from 530 county-level weather stations and 1,845 original disaster records (2004-2013; 75 typhoons were included) that could be matched to local weather stations (398 stations are covered). After error revisions, we obtained a dataset covering 530 stations and 514 typhoons from 1980 to 2022. The disasters are divided into four classes, light, moderate, severe, and extremely severe, regarding to single station and typhoon cases, respectively.
