In recent years, the altered hydrological regimes and frequent extreme events in its watershed have significantly affected stability biodiversity of dish-shaped lakes (DSLs) ecosystem Poyang Lake. This study uses long-term water level records from Xingzi station, multi-source remote sensing imagery, field surveys to assess how influence coupled hydro-ecological evolution DSLs under different gate-controlled conditions. The results reveal following: (1) After 2003, average monthly levels declined by 0.84 m, shifting prolonged inundation depths 10.0 14.0 m range into 5.5 9.5 range. Extreme disrupted regimes, triggering a clear “collapse–recovery” succession submerged plants major shifts shoal wetland vegetation. (2) Gate-controlled (GC DSLs) mitigated many these impacts reducing autumnal drawdown area change rate 0.324 km2/d, curbing upward expansion emergent hygrophytic vegetation during high-water-level stabilizing habitats low-water-level although management strategies substrate characteristics may still lead divergent habitat trajectories. (3) heterogeneity exhibited DSLs’ communities along elevation gradient had differential effects on migratory birds, GC can offer birds relatively stable resting food resources events. recommends that DSL should adopt hierarchical dynamic regulation strategy balance natural fluctuations with human interventions, thereby strengthening resilience
