•The off-peak Landsat image is corrected to its peak growth in high latitudes.•Landsat paired regression performs the best in reconstructing peak image series.•Early-season instead of late-season imagery is suggested in satellite time series.•Post-fire forest recovery expedites in five years and sat...
