Abstract
Improving environmental resilience performance (ERP) is a significant support for achieving sustainable development goals. This study introduces the three-dimensional analysis framework of "object-process-actor", capable of addressing multidimensional and multilevel issues. This framework systematically addresses the "three key questions" of what, how, and who to improve ERP. Results indicate that from 2011 to 2020, the ERP of the Yangtze River Delta Urban Agglomeration (YRDUA) was between 0.42 and 3.30. The violin plot and visualization analysis showed that its probability density and distribution status were stable, with significant regional differences. The ERP of economically developed cities such as Hangzhou and Shanghai is high, while the ERP of cities in the Yancheng-Chuzhou line is low, and the number of high-performing cities increases to 40.7% in 2020, which is a constantly improving development trend. Factors related to market actors have the greatest impact on ERP, with the explanatory power of FDI, green invention patents, and population concentration all exceeding 0.6, and the importance of government and social actors is also supported. The explanatory power of factor interactions was stronger than that of single factors, and land development degree ranked third in terms of its interaction power with other factors and was also a key factor influencing ERP. These findings provide new explanations and knowledge for improving ERP, which can provide references for policymakers and urban planners.
期刊介绍:
Physics and Chemistry of the Earth is an international interdisciplinary journal for the rapid publication of collections of refereed communications in separate thematic issues, either stemming from scientific meetings, or, especially compiled for the occasion. There is no restriction on the length of articles published in the journal. Physics and Chemistry of the Earth incorporates the separate Parts A, B and C which existed until the end of 2001.
Please note: the Editors are unable to consider submissions that are not invited or linked to a thematic issue. Please do not submit unsolicited papers.
The journal covers the following subject areas:
-Solid Earth and Geodesy:
(geology, geochemistry, tectonophysics, seismology, volcanology, palaeomagnetism and rock magnetism, electromagnetism and potential fields, marine and environmental geosciences as well as geodesy).
-Hydrology, Oceans and Atmosphere:
(hydrology and water resources research, engineering and management, oceanography and oceanic chemistry, shelf, sea, lake and river sciences, meteorology and atmospheric sciences incl. chemistry as well as climatology and glaciology).
-Solar-Terrestrial and Planetary Science:
(solar, heliospheric and solar-planetary sciences, geology, geophysics and atmospheric sciences of planets, satellites and small bodies as well as cosmochemistry and exobiology).
