The extent of submerged paddies strictly depends on crop management practices: in this framework, the recent diffusion of rice seeding in dry conditions has led to a reduction of flooded surfaces during spring and could have contributed to the observed decline of the populations of some waterbird species that exploit rice fields as foraging habitat. In order to test the existence and magnitude of a decreasing trend in the extent of submerged rice paddies during the rice-sowing period, MODIS remotely-sensed data were used to estimate the extent of the average flooded surface and the proportion of flooded rice fields in the years 2000\u20132016 during the nesting period of waterbirds. A general reduction of flooded rice fields during the rice-sowing season was observed, averaging     \u2212 0.86 \u00b1 0.20    % per year (p-value &lt; 0.01). Overall, the loss in submerged surface area during the sowing season reached     44 %     of the original extent in 2016, with a peak of     78 %     in the sub-districts to the east of the Ticino River. Results highlight the usefulness of remote sensing data and techniques to map and monitor water dynamics within rice cropping systems. These techniques could be of key importance to analyze the effects at the regional scale of the recent increase of dry-seeded rice cultivations on watershed recharge and water runoff and to interpret the decline of breeding waterbirds via a loss of foraging habitat.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs10030416","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,8]],"date-time":"2018-03-08T12:07:33Z","timestamp":1520510853000},"page":"416","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":26,"title":["Assessment of Water Management Changes in the Italian Rice Paddies from 2000 to 2016 Using Satellite Data: A Contribution to Agro-Ecological Studies"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6207-5188","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luigi","family":"Ranghetti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of Environment, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Via Bassini 15, 20133 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8580-5411","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elisa","family":"Cardarelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Universit\u00e0 di Pavia, Via Ferrata 9, 27100 Pavia, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2156-4166","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mirco","family":"Boschetti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of Environment, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Via Bassini 15, 20133 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9634-6038","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lorenzo","family":"Busetto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of Environment, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Via Bassini 15, 20133 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7366-5893","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mauro","family":"Fasola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Universit\u00e0 di Pavia, Via Ferrata 9, 27100 Pavia, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"65","DOI":"10.1038\/371065a0","article-title":"Habitat destruction and the extinction debt","volume":"371","author":"Tilman","year":"1994","journal-title":"Nature"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"163","DOI":"10.1017\/S1464793105006950","article-title":"Freshwater biodiversity: Importance, threats, status and conservation challenges","volume":"81","author":"Dudgeon","year":"2006","journal-title":"Biol.
