Reservoirs are closely related to anthropic activities, and quantifying the long-term dynamics of surface water in reservoirs could be useful for decision-makers to improve the actual strategies of reservoir management. This study used the global Moran’s I index, modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) and a total of 596 Landsat images during 1985–2018 for tracking the annual dynamics of water extent in the process of water shrinkage and expansion in Guanting Reservoir, China. Landscape metrics related to the area, elongation, fragmentation, and edge complexity of surface water in reservoir landscape were computed for tracking the annual dynamics of surface water patterns. Statistical comparison between the results of global Moran’s I index and landscape metrics indicates that except for the complexity of water and non-water edge, global Moran’s I index can successfully estimate the dynamics of the area, elongation and fragmentation of surface water in the reservoir. This study proposed a continuous approach of long-term monitoring of surface water patterns using spatial autocorrelation that might be used in the areas where the surface water extraction is difficult and water dynamics are complex.
