Abstract:

In this study, based on the multidimensional perspective of economy, society, and ecology, the spatiotemporal change characteristics of urban resilience of districts and counties in Inner Mongolia, China, from 2000 to 2019 were investigated by using the entropy weight method, comprehensive index method, and global Moran’s I index. Furthermore, the geographical weighted regression model was used to investigate the influence of human activity intensity on the urban resilience of districts and counties. The results revealed that: (1) The level of urban resilience of districts and counties in Inner Mongolia increased from 2000 to 2019 because of the continuous improvement of the social economic development level. (2) The spatial distribution of the level of urban resilience of districts and counties in Inner Mongolia differed, and the level of urban resilience of districts and counties in the eastern and central regions was considerably higher than that of districts and counties in other leagues and cities. (3) The change in the human activity intensity of population density, construction land, and night-time light data significantly affected the change in the level of urban resilience of districts and counties in Inner Mongolia. This study provides a reference for the sustainable development of various districts and counties in Inner Mongolia and exhibits practical and theoretical significance for enriching research in urban resilience in China.

Key words: district-county scale, urban relisence, human activity intensity, Inner Mongolia
