Strengthening the construction of urban ecological resilience is an important measure to improveurban ecological security, improveurban ecological environment,increase ecological benefits, and realize urban sustainable development.In order to overcome the limitations of static analysis, combined with the triple helix theory, the pressure-state-response (PSR) model was used to construct an urban ecological resilience growth force evaluation index system containing 16 evaluation indexes.In addition, the main components analysis method and entropy method were used to determine the comprehensive weight of indicators, and the ecological resilience growth force of 31 majorcities in China from 2017 to 2020was evaluated. The coupling degree and coupling coordination degree were introduced to analyze the results. The results showed that except Urumqi, the growth capacity of ecological resilience of other provincial capitals showed a trend of increasing first, then decreasing and then stable, and the overall level of urban ecological resilience increased spirally. Moreover, the coupling coordination degree of urban ecological resilience growth force showed three situations: first rising and then falling, first falling and then rising, and constantly rising, and most cities' coupling coordination degree of ecological resilience growth force showed the trend of first rising and then falling.According to the evaluation results, countermeasures and suggestions were put forward to promote the construction of urban ecological resilience.
