Abstract: Based on land use data in Wuling Mountain Area from 2000 to 2020, the land use transfer matrix, ecosystem service value, ecological environment quality index, ecological contribution rate of land use type conversion, ecological response index and other methods were integrated to explore the land use evolution characteristics and its ecological environment response mechanism in Wuling Mountain Area. The results showed that the production space area in Wuling Mountain Area decreased year by year, the living space area continued to increase, and the ecological space area increased and then decreased. The land use dynamics were the largest from 2005 to 2010. From 2000 to 2020, the value of ecosystem services in Wuling Mountain Area increased gradually, with a total increase of 23.722 billion yuan. The ecological environment quality index fluctuated and increased by 0.003 610 as a whole. The response of the ecological environment quality index and ecosystem service value to the evolution of production-living-ecological space was synergistic. The conversion of cropland to forest land and grassland to forest land was the main reason for the improvement of ecological environment quality in Wuling Mountain Area, while the conversion of forest land to cropland, grassland to cropland, and forest land to construction land was the main reason for the deterioration of ecological environment quality.

Key words: production-living-ecological space, land use evolution, ecological enviroment response, Wuling Mountain Area
