The research of land use and land cover change is a core and focal point for the study on the global changes. Also the research of eco-environmental change is significantly important for better understanding land use/land cover change and environmental management for sustainable development. In order to analyze eco-environment in Hubei province, the technologies of remote sensing(RS) and geographical information system(GIS) were used. The mathematical methodology for study on eco-environment was explored and developed. This research focused on the analysis of eco-environment and land-use degree in Hubei province. 
Firstly, this paper got the synthetic eco-environmental evaluation result map of Hubei province using spatial principal components evaluation method. The equation form of spatial principal components evaluation is :
E=a₁Y₁+a₂Y₂+…+a_MY_M
where E is result of eco-environmental synthetic evaluation; a₁ is contribute ratio of i principal component;Y _i is i principal component. 
Using this equation, the eco-environmental evaluation of Hubei province can be calculated as one unit, and the synthetic eco-environmental evaluation map of Hubei province we can get.
Secondly, the authors made eco-environmental background index map and land resources used degree map through define the ecological environmental background index and land resources use degree index. The equation form of eco-environmental background index is:
I_j=100×∑⁵ _i=1E_i×(A_i/S_i)
where   I_j is the eco-environmental background index of j unit; E_i is the grade of the type i of eco-environmental background; A_i is area in the type i  of eco-environmental background; S_i is the total area in i unit.
The equation form of land resources used degree index is:
L_j=100×∑⁴_i=1A_i×C_i
where   L_j is the land resources use degree index; A_i is area in the type i  of land resources use degree; C_i is the area percentage of type i of land resources use degree in analysis-unit.
Thirdly, based on eco-environmental background index and land resources use degree index, the relational coefficient formulas are following:
c=1/N∑ⁿ_i=1(x_i-x^-)(y_i-y^-)/(∑ (x_i-x^-)²⁽y_i-y^-)²)^1/2
then the relations between eco-environmental background index and land resources use degree index were analyzed.
 At last, the mechanism of eco-environmental background change and its driving forces were discussed in this paper.
