Under the requirements of the “double carbon” goal and the new development concept of high-quality development, the coordinated promotion of pollution, carbon reduction, and high-quality development is significant in promoting the social economy’s comprehensive green transformation. The coupling and coordination degree between pollution, carbon reduction, and high-quality development of 110 cities in the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2010 to 2021 was measured, and the modified gravity model and social network analysis were then employed to assess the spatial network characteristics, patterns, and structure evolution. The results indicated that the coupling and coordination of urban clusters in the Yangtze River Economic Belt showed an increasing pattern, and the spatial arrangement shifted from dispersed to centralized. The spatial linkage strength and potential increased, while the spatial linkage pattern was steady. The direction of spatial connectivity remained consistent, with significant central city orientation and geographical proximity. The overall network structure was characterized by increased network density and an increased number of network links within each urban cluster, while network effectiveness fluctuated and decreased. The predominance of central or developed cities characterized individual network characteristics. This study is of great significance for exploring the coordinated development of pollution reduction, carbon reduction, and high-quality development, providing a theoretical basis for implementing ecological civilization, promoting carbon neutrality, promoting regional coordinated development, and achieving green, low-carbon, and sustainable development.

Cities encounter increasing risks and challenges under new development patterns, and digital economy (DE) can drive cities’ improved resilience to natural and social uncertainties. Based on data collected on the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2011 to 2021, the development situation of the regional DE and urban resilience (UR) was measured, and the impact mechanisms of the DE on UR were analysed theoretically and empirically using a benchmark regression model. The findings are as follows: The benchmark test revealed that the DE development contributed significantly to UR in the region. The mediating effect test revealed that the DE improved UR through two pathways: industrial structure upgradation and energy restructuring. The moderating effect test suggested that environmental pollutant emissions had a negative moderating effect between the impact mechanisms of the DE, industrial structure, and energy structure and between the effects of industrial structure, energy structure, and UR, whereas CO2 emissions had a positive moderating effect between the impact mechanisms of DE and industrial structure. Heterogeneity analysis indicated that the DE contributed positively to the UR except in the upstream region, where the coefficient of the DE was insignificant. Overall, this study highlights the crucial role of the DE in improving UR and elucidates the theoretical impact mechanisms of environmental pollution control and carbon reduction measures on UR.
