Abstract: In recent years, the ecological environment of the Dongting Lake basin has been under great pressure due to natural disasters, unreasonable exploitation and utilization. Accurate and real-time acquisition of temporal and spatial pattern and evolution trend of eco-environmental quality is of great significance for eco-environmental protection and construction in the Dongting Lake basin. In view of the ecological situation of the Dongting Lake basin with rich vegetation and biodiversity, based on CHEQ using standardized coefficient multiple linear regression method and random forest algorithm, this study explores the temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of eco-environmental quality in the Dongting Lake basin and the influence of social and natural factors on the ecology of the Dongting Lake basin. The results show that: ① The eco-environmental quality of the Dongting Lake basin decreased rapidly from 2001 to 2009, and increased slowly from 2010 to 2019. The average trend rate of CHEQ was -0.17×10-3 a-1, indicating that the eco-environmental quality of Dongting Lake basin showed a decreasing trend during the past 19 years. In the past 19 years, 20.31% of the areas where the eco-environmental quality has been improved significantly in the Dongting Lake basin, while degraded seriously areas accounted for 24.33%. ② During the study period, Pingjiang county, Taoyuan county and Taojiang county ranked the top three in ecological environmental quality, and the ecological quality was basically in good grade. Furong district, which ranked at the bottom of ecological quality, degraded from a poor grade to a terrible grade. ③ From the perspective of time, the main driving factors of eco-environmental quality change in the Dongting Lake basin were water shortage and IBI index in the past 19 years. The driving factors for the spatial distribution of eco-environmental quality in the Dongting Lake basin were temperature, soil moisture, surface runoff and IBI index. Henceforth, the management strategy of the Dongting Lake basin should focus on ecological restoration, promote the coupling and coordinated development of economy and ecology, and develop industrial groups that adapt to the ecological environment of the basin as the main goal, so as to realize the sustainable utilization of ecological resources in the basin. This study can provide a scientific basis for exploring the coordinated method of sustainable utilization and practical protection of natural resources in the Dongting Lake basin.
