Due to the complexity of environmental city networks, the incentives of climate actions in these networks are unclear. Despite their rise, the literature is yet to fully engage with this complexity, as siloed disciplinary focuses on specific aspects of climate actions in city networks are far behind explaining the reality of these networks. Since there is a dispersed understanding of climate actions in city networks across different fields of research, we adopt an interdisciplinary approach to identify the key drivers of climate actions in city networks. Urban studies' focus is on networking and the political economy behind it. On the other hand, sustainability transition studies has provided an in-depth understanding of the socio-cultural context, and scholars in environmental science illuminate the environmental context of cities. By synthesizing these three fields, this paper proposes a framework that ensures a comprehensive understanding of drivers of climate actions in city networks. It consists of thirteen attributes under four themes of networking context, political economy, socio-cultural context, and environmental context. The framework's utility is identifying the limitations of studies and a comprehensive comparison of cities to unpack the drivers of climate actions in city networks to encourage networking.

由于环境城市网络的复杂性，这些网络中气候行动的动机尚不清楚。尽管它们的兴起，文献尚未完全了解这种复杂性，因为孤立的学科关注城市网络中气候行动的特定方面远远落后于解释这些网络的现实。由于不同研究领域对城市网络中气候行动的理解较为分散，因此我们采用跨学科方法来确定城市网络中气候行动的关键驱动因素。城市研究的重点是网络及其背后的政治经济。另一方面，可持续性转型研究提供了对社会文化背景的深入理解，环境科学学者阐明了城市的环境背景。通过综合这三个领域，本文提出了一个框架，以确保全面了解城市网络中气候行动的驱动因素。它由网络语境、政治经济、社会文化语境和环境语境四个主题下的 13 个属性组成。该框架的效用是确定研究的局限性和城市的综合比较，以解开城市网络中气候行动的驱动因素，以鼓励联网。
