With the rapid development of economy, protection of ecology and environment has become the world consensus nowadays. The harmony between ecological benefits and economic benefits has become an important foundation for regional sustainable development. In this paper, ecological environment and ecosystem services had been taken into account together for the first time, which could help to get more accurate evaluation on ecosystem at county scale. The economic system was evaluated by economic and social indicators. With respect to both the studies of coordinated development of eco-economic system and Jiangsu’s actual situations, evaluation indicators had been chosen and the model of eco-economic harmony had been established. We studied the characters of spatial differentiation of eco-economic harmony degrees in 2010, and analyzed the influencing factors subsequently. Several conclusions were as follows. (1) Ecosystem had the significant features of spatial agglomeration, and the spatial agglomeration degrees were high in the middle part of Jiangsu, and in the surrounding Taihu Lake and in the mountain areas of the south of Jiangsu, low in both the northeastern part of northern Jiangsu and counties along the Yangtze river. (2) Economic system had the typical features of gradient distribution, and developed counties were predominately located in the southern part, and relative backward counties were distributed in the northern part of Jiangsu. Except for that, there appeared a kind of concentric circles structure whose center was the Taihu Lake region within the scope of the Jiangsu Province, and the level of economic development decreased with the increasing distance from the center. (3) The eco-economic harmony (EEH) had the obvious features of spatial heterogeneity, and the EEH degrees were high in the northern part of Jiangsu, at coastal areas, and surrounding the mountain areas of south Jiangsu, low in the areas around Taihu Lake. (4) The analysis of influencing factors indicated that urbanization, industrialization, land development intensity and the road density were the important influencing factors for the differentiation of the eco-economic system, but their effects were of different directions and intensities for the spatial differentiation of the eco-economic harmony. (5) These results can provide a scientific reference for optimizing the regional development pattern, promoting the construction of ecological civilization, and improving policy measures of spatial development control.
