Urban-rural integration effect of the spatial correlation network of tourism economy in the Wuling Mountain Area
Systematically characterizing the spatial correlation network of tourism economy in the Wuling Mountain Area and exploring its urban-rural integration effects has practical value for the cohesion of tourism economic development and expanding its network spillover effect on urban-rural integration.Using the modified gravity model,social network analysis method,and spatial measurement model,this study systematically explored the urban-rural integration effect of the spatial network of tourism economy in the Wuling Mountain Area based on the characteristics of the spatial correlation network of tourism economy and the evolution of the level of urban-rural integration from 2010 to 2021.The results show that:1)The spatial correlation network of tourism economy in the Wuling Mountain Area presented a complicated and multi-threaded network structure,and Wulingyuan District,Yongding District,Fenghuang County,and Enshi City were at the core of the spatial correlation network of tourism economy.2)The overall level of urban-rural integration was relatively low in the Wuling Mountain Area,showing a slow upgrading trend,but the regional difference in the level of urban-rural integration had expanded,and the counties with a higher level of urban-rural integration exhibited a spatial spillover effect to form high-level agglomerations.3)The enhancement of spatial correlation network centrality of tourism economy in the Wuling Mountain Area significantly promoted urban-rural integration,and this positive externality showed spatial heterogeneity,the urban-rural integration effect of the network centrality of the former national-level poverty-stricken counties was more prominent,while the promotional effect was not significant in the counties of the inter-provincial boundary areas.4)There was a significant spatial spillover effect of spatial correlation network centrality of tourism economy on urban-rural integration in the Wuling Mountain Area,and the spatial spillover had a boundary effect,with the coefficient of spillover reaching a peak at 110 km,and thereafter it decayed with distance.The results of the study can provide practical references for promoting urban-rural integration and common prosperity in the Wuling Mountain Area.
