The Relationship Between Urban Resilience Construction and Economic Development from the Perspective of Environmental Geology — A Case Study of Shenzhen

Urban resilience is a key capability for contemporary cities to maintain core functions, recover quickly, and adapt to development when facing natural and social disturbances. From the fundamental perspective of environmental geology, this paper explores the intrinsic logical relationship between urban resilience construction and economic development in Shenzhen when addressing natural challenges such as geological hazards, coastal zone changes, and groundwater system fluctuations. The study argues that effective management of geological risks constitutes the physical foundation of urban economic resilience, while sustained economic development provides necessary material and technical support for enhancing geological safety resilience. The two form an interdependent and mutually promoting coupled system. Finally, the paper proposes an implementation path for constructing a “geological-economic” coordinated resilience system, aiming to provide theoretical reference and practical insights for Shenzhen and other similar coastal cities with high-intensity development.
