description Rice is a primary food crop, and rice production ensures food security and maintains social stability with great significance. Flooding paddy rice fields as an important step in rice production affects the entire growth process of rice. The selection of flooding time is highly correlated with paddy rice yield and water resource utilization. In the background of global warming, early flooding in high-latitude paddy rice planting areas can ensure that rice has sufficient growing time to increase yield. However, overly early flooding may cause waste of water resources due to insufficient heat. Currently, research on flooding timing is relatively lacking, and monitoring of temperature during flooding is particularly deficient. To respond to climate change, it is necessary to explore whether the current flooding schedule meets the actual needs. Based on MODIS surface reflectivity data, we identified the First Flooding Day (FFD) and Peak Flooding Day (PFD) in the Sanjiang Plain. Using MODIS Land Surface Temperature (LST) data and meteorological station-provided air temperature data, we analyzed the corresponding LST and air temperature for PFD from 2008 to 2024. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) both FFD and PFD in the Sanjiang Plain have a trend of advancing year by year, with PFD showing stronger advancement than FFD; (2) the LST and air temperature during flooding in the Sanjiang Plain show a downward trend year by year; and (3) by 2024, the flooding temperature of paddy rice fields in the Sanjiang Plain has generally met the needs for the next step of production. This study first attempts to use high-temporal-resolution remote sensing images to identify the flooding time of paddy fields and achieve timely monitoring of flooding and changes in flooding temperature.
