This study uses four dimensions, namely social resilience, economic infrastructure and ecological to construct an index system for urban resilience. The subject data came from the panel of 282 prefecture-level cities in China 2006 2020. We selected a multiperiod double-difference model effects smart city pilot policies on macro-urban By conducting parallel-trend tests selecting appropriate robustness tests, this drew following relevant conclusion: can have positive effect resilience level. These exert their influence by facilitating industrial structure upgrading, which plays partial mediating role. Considering different area distributions scales, significant heterogeneity enhancement is pronounced “east > central west” states more likely impact small- medium-sized cities. Therefore, promoting scope pilots, strengthening intermediary role implementing differentiated regions sizes are important sustainable development.

The increasing frequency of extreme climate events has posed severe challenges to China’s socio-economic development and ecological environment due geological disasters. Therefore, there is an urgent need for effective adaptive strategies enhance geo-disaster resilience. Environmental governance, as measure reduce risks from climates disasters while promoting high-quality social development, remains underexplored in terms its impact on This study innovatively constructs a resilience assessment framework that considers intensity, integrating various statistical methods, including the Super-Efficiency Slacks-Based Measure Data Envelopment Analysis (SBM-DEA) model, spatial Markov chains, methods such Geodetector Geographically Temporally Weighted Regression (GTWR), reveal spatiotemporal evolution China 2007 2022, also analyzing mechanisms through which environmental governance influences variations. findings indicate exhibits unstable growth with significant regional disparities. Spatially, shows notable spillover effects tendency toward convergence within similar regions. unevenly enhances over time space: soil water conservation afforestation are generally measures, contributions replenishment, facility management personnel, fiscal expenditure, nature reserve protection vary by region. research offers key insights into improving optimizing disaster response capacity sustainable development.

China’s rapid urbanization has spurred economic growth and posed environmental challenges. We investigate the relationship between multidimensional pollution by a fixed effect model based on panel data of 70 cities in three major urban agglomerations Yangtze River Economic Belt during 2005–2020. Overall, aggravates then decreases agglomerations, which is closely related to control policies. Environmental shows obvious spatial heterogeneities five levels have been gradually changed from high-value low-value levels. In Belt, dominated “High–High” “Low–Low” clusters. Among them, clusters move eastwards, while concentrate southeastwards. Multidimensional helps alleviate regional pollution. Economic, social, land reduces certain extent.

Urban resilience and urban land use efficiency are inevitable topics in planning development, the coupling coordination between two will contribute substantially to sustainability. With panel data from 14 cities Hunan 2010 2021 by combining entropy method, Super-SBM model, degree this study analyzed dynamic spatial–temporal evolution pattern of utilization their through a multi-dimensional evaluation index system 2021. The main findings were as follows: overall, stayed low over years study. Temporally, mean increased gradually 0.1962 0.3331, spatially, was higher eastern region than western area province, with Changsha having highest level resilience. Second, rose volatility 0.7162 0.9299, northern southern region, Zhangjiajie efficiency. Third, province had high efficiency, average value 0.8531, degrees observed Chang–Zhu–Tan agglomeration province. Fourth, moderate across rising 0.5788 0.6453, marginally coordinated primarily coordinated, where degree. All state level. highly state. research here is expected provide some references for administrators beyond release policies that achieve stronger resilience, better coordination.

The construction industry plays a pivotal role in China’s achievement of its “dual carbon” goals. This study conducts decomposition analysis the carbon emissions from (CECI) at both national and provincial levels for period 2010–2020 employs ARIMA model to predict short-term peak trends level. findings are as follows. (1) Inner Mongolia, Shandong, Sichuan, Chongqing exhibit an N-shaped trend CECI, while northeast region shows inverted U-shaped trend. (2) Labor productivity energy intensity identified largest smallest drivers CECI growth, respectively, with driving force study’s factors fluctuating between 1% 60%. (3) Energy significantly contributes growth Tianjin Zhejiang, it aids reducing western provinces. “rebound effect” building efficiency is particularly pronounced provinces strong resource endowments, such Ningxia. (4) Between 2021 2025, predicted decrease northern economically developed provinces, expected increase central Heilongjiang, Guangdong, Shanghai, Shaanxi potentially reaching their peaks within forecast period. paper concludes several recommendations.
