Abstract

Tourism eco-efficiency (TEE) is a pivotal metric for assessing tourism’s sustainability and the balance between human activities and the environment, significantly influencing regional economic growth (RGDP). This research utilizes a comprehensive analytical framework, combining the Super SBM-DEA model, the Malmquist index, and spatial econometric models, to analyze the spatial interplay between TEE and RGDP within the Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) from 2009 to 2021. The results show that (1) TEE in the YREB exhibits a generally upward trajectory with fluctuations, with upstream and downstream regions consistently outperforming the midstream areas in terms of efficiency; (2) technological progress is identified as the primary driver behind efficiency variations; (3) and there exists a symbiotic relationship between local TEE and RGDP, where the economic prosperity of adjacent regions exerts a competitive pull on local TEE, while the TEE of neighboring areas can slow down local economic growth. The study concludes with strategic recommendations aimed at fostering regional collaborative advancement, offering valuable insights for the sustainable development agenda of nations and regions.

旅游生态效益与经济发展的空间互动溢出效应

旅游生态效益（TEE）是评估旅游业可持续性以及人类活动与环境平衡的关键指标，对区域经济增长（RGDP）具有重要影响。本研究采用综合分析框架，结合超级 SBM-DEA 模型、Malmquist 指数和空间计量经济模型，分析了 2009 至 2021 年长江经济带（YREB）内旅游生态效率与 RGDP 的空间相互作用。结果表明：(1) 长江经济带的技术经济效率总体上呈现波动上升的轨迹，上游和下游地区的效率始终优于中游地区；(2) 技术进步被认为是效率变化背后的主要驱动力；(3) 当地的技术经济效率与 RGDP 之间存在共生关系，相邻地区的经济繁荣会对当地的技术经济效率产生竞争拉动作用，而相邻地区的技术经济效率则会减缓当地的经济增长。研究最后提出了旨在促进区域协同进步的战略建议，为国家和地区的可持续发展议程提供了宝贵的见解。
