ABSTRACT
With the rapid development of urban construction, construction land continues to expand while
ecological land continues to shrink. Various risks and degradation phenomena have emerged in urban
ecosystems, making it particularly important to assess urban ecological resilience. This study focuses
on the various changes brought about by the urbanization process in Luoyang city. The current study
constructed an ecological resilience measurement model based on risk connectivity potential. This study
evaluates the spatiotemporal distribution and evolutionary characteristics of adaptive ecological risks
in the current and future of the research area from a holistic and dynamic perspective, aiming to provide
important guidance for the sustainable development of cities. The results indicate that there are significant
differences in the ecological restoration capacity of Luoyang City. The resilience of the northern region
is lower, while the resilience of the southern region is higher, which is closely related to the ecological
areas with abundant natural resources. At the same time, the center of ecological resilience is shifting
towards the northeast. This study also found that different discretization methods significantly reveal
differences in driving factors. The comprehensive impact of the natural environment, geographical
conditions, and socioeconomic factors on ecological resilience was accurately revealed by selecting
the optimal discretization method and classification number. The micro differential characteristics
and driving factors of ecological resilience were deeply analyzed and provided scientific guidance for
developing adaptive planning strategies under dynamic changes in Luoyang City to achieve sustainable
regional development.
