摘要
Digital technology is gradually emerging as a new driving force in the field of water resources management. In this paper, we conduct a thorough analysis of panel data from 30 provinces in China spanning from 2013 to 2022. Utilizing the fixed-effects model, the mediation effect model, a panel threshold model, and a coupling coordination degree model, this study empirically examines the impact of digital technology on water resources management. The findings are as follows: (1) The direct impact of digital technology on water resources management is significantly positive at the 1% level, with notable regional variations. (2) Digital technology improves water management through green innovation. (3) In the process of digital technology promoting water resources management, green innovation exhibits a threshold effect, with an estimated threshold value of 1.840. (4) During the sample period, the national coupling coordination degree of digital technology and water resources management was barely coordinated, showing the following characteristics: Eastern China > Western China > Central China. These research conclusions will offer valuable insights and directions for advancing sustainable water resources management strategies and fostering the deep integration of digital technology and water resources management.
