As an important engine of China’s development, the Yangtze River Economic Belt faces dual contradiction economic growth and ecological protection. Addressing insufficient analysis spatiotemporal evolution driving mechanisms city-level carbon footprints, this study delves into concept footprint from perspective theory cycle dynamics. Using ODIAC NPP data, it systematically evaluates footprints across 130 cities examines their factors using kernel density estimation Kaya-LMDI model. The results show (1) a significant trend in footprint, with rapid expansion 2000 to 2012, followed by fluctuating 2012 2022; (2) west-to-east “low–high” spatial pattern, where disparities have narrowed but absolute gaps continue widen, leading polarization; (3) urban as primary drivers growth, while land use pressure sequestration capacity played major role mitigation, impact foundations remaining limited. This conducts precise regional sink accounting offers new on quantitative drivers. findings provide insights for low-carbon governance sustainable development Belt.
