Research on the Spatiotemporal Differentiation of the Coupling and Coordination between Digital Economy and Tourism Economy in the Yangtze River Delta Region
This paper uses the panel data of the Yangtze River Delta region from 2011 to 2021 to construct an index of the digital economy and tourism economy with the entropy method,and uses the coupling coordination model and spatial autocorrelation model to analyze the coordination and integration level and spatial correlation between the two.The research shows that:from 2011 to 2021,the digital economy and tourism economy index and regional coupling coordination level in the Yangtze River Delta region are on the rise;there are spatial differences in the coupling and coordination between cities,with an overall ladder distribution of high in the east,low in the west,high in provincial capital cities,and low in other cities;the coupling coordination degree also has significant spatial agglomeration characteristics.The"high high"agglomeration areas are concentrated within the Shanghai radiation circle,covering the northern and southern regions of Zhejiang,while the"low low"agglomeration areas are mainly concentrated in the northern and northern regions of Anhui.The central region is not significant,but this agglomeration effect is gradually weakening.
