The Impact of the Digital Economy on the High-quality Development of Urban Tourism and Its Spatial Decay Effect:Taking Cities in the Yangtze River Economic Zone as an Example
Based on panel data from 98 cities in the Yangtze River Economic Zone from 2011 to 2019,this study constructs evaluation indicator system for high-quality development of digital economy and tourism economy,and on the basis of meas-uring its comprehensive level,explains the spatiotemporal patterns of the kernel density and spatial auto-correlation meth-ods,empirically tests the contribution of the digital economy to the high-quality growth of the tourism economy by using re-gression models,and examines the spacial spillover effects and spacial decal boundaries of the digital economy on the high-quality development of the tourism economy by comprehensively using the spatial Durbin model and its partial differ-ential decomposition.Research shows that:(1)Temporally,both high-quality indices of the digital economy and tourism economy show an upward trend,with inter-cities exhibiting a convergent evolution trend accompanied by polarization phe-nomena.(2)The digital economy can significantly promote high-quality development of the tourism economy,with contri-butions remaining consistently high across cities at varying levels in different regions.(3)A spatial spillover effect exists,which exhibits a marked spatial decay feature,featuring"negative-to-positive"decay in upper and midstream areas and"positive-to-negative"decay in downstream areas and the overall economic zone,with distinct decay boundaries across re-gions.These conclusions remain robust under various stability tests.
