摘要
Our study uses the SBM-undesirable output model of DEA to measure the eco-efficiency of 28 national forest parks and spatial autocorrelation in order to analyze the evolution of spatial–temporal evolution. The conclusions are as follows: (1) the average eco-efficiency of forest tourism in Liaoning is 0.88 between 2007 and 2016, at a relatively high level. The trend is upward although there is a small fluctuation. (2) The eco-efficiency in eastern and southern regions is obviously higher than that in northern and western ones. Fenghuang, Dahe, Huancheng, and Hemu have always been in effective frontier. The eco- efficiency increases greatly in eastern and southern regions but slowly or even stagnantly in northern and western ones. (3) According to the Moran index of forest tourism, regions with a similar level of eco-efficiency show the phenomenon of volatility agglomeration in space. From the local analysis, due to the positive radiation in eastern and southern regions, the eco-efficiency of forest tourism in Liaoning has been constantly improving. The original regional polarization situation has been improved, and the regional differences have been reduced. © 2021, Saudi Society for Geosciences.
