The research aims to explore the dynamics and mechanisms of tourism development on Hainan Island and its sustainability challenges.
Analyzed multi-source data on tourism resources from 2012 to 2022.
Developed mathematical models to quantify tourism intensity and efficiency.
Examined spatial structures and evolution of tourism development.
Utilized spatial econometric modeling to assess regional effects.
Tourism development shifted through specific spatial patterns from 2012 to 2022.
Driving factors include policy, natural resources, and infrastructure, with varying regional impacts.
Notable regional differences were found, with eastern areas affected by hotel density, and northern areas by the tertiary sector.
Indirect effects of factors on tourism were significantly greater than direct effects.
