Abstract

Understanding the spatial dependence and changes in urban ecological resilience is critical to achieving regional sustainability. This study uses exploratory spatial data analysis and a dynamic spatial Durbin model to investigate urban ecological resilience in the Huai River Ecological Economic Belt from 2011 to 2023. The results show the following: (1) Resilience generally improves, but differences within the region increase. Over time, the region forms a stable “core–periphery” spatial pattern. (2) Technological innovation is the main local factor boosting resilience. Industrial upgrading, urbanization, and technological progress have a strong positive impact on neighboring areas. However, economic growth causes negative spillovers, and environmental regulation has a limited cross-regional effect. These findings show complex spatial interactions behind ecological resilience. The study provides practical guidance on strengthening regional cooperation and leveraging innovation to foster high-resilience development.
