Loss of sustained attention to tourism resources is the phenomenon of reduced or shifted attention to tourism resources, which is important for enhancing the risk-resistant ability of tourism resources. Based on the big data of online public opinion and the comprehensive use of sentiment analysis, LDA theme model, fuzzy qualitative comparative analysis and other research methods, the study explores the factors and paths that affect the loss of sustained attention to tourism resources based on the establishment of comprehensive evaluation indexes to measure the loss of sustained attention to tourism resources. The study found that: (1) The loss of sustained attention of tourism resources is characterised by volatility, but tends to be stable internally. (2) During the study period, the loss of sustained attention of Zibo, Hongyadong, and Harbin Ice and Snow Festival showed a decreasing trend, the loss of sustained attention of Chaka Salt Lake, Beer Festival, Impression Liu Sanjie, and Da Song Qianguo Love showed an increasing trend, and the loss of sustained attention of Datang Nocturnal City showed an increasing trend followed by a decreasing trend. (3) The loss of sustained attention of tourism resources is influenced by the interaction of tourism supply, market demand, new media communication and other factors, and the paths that form the low loss of sustained attention of tourism resources are product innovation and media marketing. The results of the study provide theoretical reference for understanding the inner logic of the sustainable development of tourism resources in the new media era, and provide practical guidance for effectively matching public service supply, and improving resource quality and promotion.

Current research on tourism resource development predominantly focuses on the economic attributes of resources and their economic transformation effects on products or industries, with limited attention to the social attributes and social effects of these resources. This paper conducts a comparative study of three rural communities in the circum-Erhai Lake region of Yunnan province with varying degrees of tourism involvement. The study explores the community heterogenization effects of tourism resource development and the bidirectional driving mechanisms between tourism resource development and community heterogenization. The research findings are as follows: Firstly, distinct from other rural resource development models, tourism resource development leads to both vertical economic heterogenization and horizontal group heterogenization among homogeneous village communities. Secondly, there is a bidirectional driving mechanism between tourism resource development and community heterogenization. On the one hand, tourism resource development brings about the transformation of resource value, establishing a link between "natural resources" and "social resources," resulting in the attraction of material wealth and population groups. On the other hand, community heterogenization creates internal tension among resource users, fostering diversified and systematic resource utilization methods, thereby promoting the integration of resource types and the enlargement of resource categories. Under the dual influence of external market and internal community drivers, tourism resources are developed and redeveloped, exhibiting value amplification and category enlargement effects.

To achieve carbon neutrality and promote the sustainable development of hotels, it is very important to study the differences of hotel practitioners' low-carbon cognition and behavior. The principal component analysis, coupling coordination degree, paired sample T-test and geographic detector were used to study the differences and influencing factors of low-carbon cognition and behavior of hotel practitioners in Wutai Mountain Scenic Spot. The results showed that: (1) The low-carbon cognition and behavior of hotel practitioners involved six dimensions: low-carbon diet, low-carbon accommodation, low-carbon management, low-carbon cycle, low-carbon service and low-carbon supply. The influencing factors included seven factors: man-land view, climate change view, carbon neutrality knowledge and mode, ecological culture, low-carbon service cost, low-carbon social atmosphere and policy, low-carbon facilities and conditions. (2) According to star-rated of hotel, the hotel practitioners were divided into four groups: five-star, four-star, three-star, below three-star and homestay practitioner. The level of cognition showed a gradual decline. (3) There were significant differences in the low-carbon cognition and behavior of hotel practitioners. In terms of low-carbon cognition, the four groups were all lagging behind in the cognition of low-carbon diet, while in terms of low-carbon behavior, they were lagging behind in the behavior of low-carbon supply, low-carbon accommodation, low-carbon management, low-carbon cycle and low-carbon service. (4) According to the difference of coupling coordination, the practitioners of five-star had intermediate coordination in the dimensions of low-carbon accommodation, cycle and supply, while the dominant factors were the man-land view, low-carbon facilities and conditions. The practitioners of four-star were the primary coordination in supply dimension, while the intermediate coordination were accommodation and cycle dimension. The main driving force was low-carbon facilities and conditions, costs of low-carbon service, carbon neutrality knowledge and mode. The practitioners of three-star were primary coordination on supply dimension, while the dimensions of accommodation and cycle were intermediate coordination. The main factors were ecological culture, carbon neutrality knowledge and mode. The practitioners below three-star and homestay were primary coordination in the dimensions of cycle and supply. The main influencing factors were costs of low-carbon service, low-carbon social atmosphere and policy.

A comprehensive understanding of tourism ecological carrying capacity was pivotal in guiding sustainable development of regional tourism. In this paper, we proposed a "multi-scale fusion" method for delineating evaluation units and introduced a "carrier-load" perspective to establish a novel tourism ecological carrying capacity evaluation framework. Taking the coastal counties of Jiangsu province as an example, we applied the proposed evaluation unit division and tourism ecological carrying capacity assessment approach. The results were as follows: (1) By employing the multi-scale fusion approach, the coastal region of Jiangsu province was divided into 4.9×10⁵ evaluation units spanning across seven spatial scales. (2) The division of evaluation units revealed significant differences in the performance of tourism ecological carriers and tourism load evaluation indicators across various spatial scales. (3) The tourism ecological carrying capacity of the coastal counties in Jiangsu exhibited a gradual weakening trend from the sea towards the land, with the majority of areas facing a potential risk of exceeding their carrying capacity. This paper broke through the limitations of traditional evaluation unit scales and the "threshold" constraint on tourism ecological carrying capacity, aiming to provide new theoretical and methodological references for regional evaluation unit delineation and tourism ecological carrying capacity assessment.

Rural tourism destination is the key area to promote urban-rural integration and achieve common prosperity. Accurately grasping the multidimensional characteristics of county urban-rural integration development and systematically analyzing its mechanism of promoting the common prosperity of rural tourism destinations, is conducive to enriching the theoretical system of urban-rural common prosperity in the New Era. Therefore, based on symbiosis theory, this paper constructs a theoretical framework to examine the influence mechanism of urban-rural integration development on the common prosperity of rural tourism destinations. This theoretical framework is composed of the chain causality of "symbiotic unit-symbiotic environment-symbiotic result-symbiotic effect-symbiotic purpose". Based on this framework, this paper makes an empirical analysis of 60 typical rural tourism counties in the Yangtze River Delta region. The results show that: (1) Although rural tourism can continuously deepen the symbiotic relationship between urban and rural areas and enhance the common prosperity level of rural tourism destinations, it is characterized by unbalanced development and forms a "core-edge" spatial development layout. (2) The county urban-rural integration development can linearly promote the common prosperity of rural tourism destinations. And through the cultivation of tourism talents, the expansion of tourism market, the integration of space and landscape, and the allocation of tourism resources, new symbiotic energy is formed to enhance the promotion effect. Among them, because the countryside is in the period of material wealth accumulation, the tourism market expansion mechanism to improve residents' income level has the highest mediating promotion effect. (3) In urban-rural symbiotic units of different city sizes, the symbiotic environment of population, land and industry is differentiated and integrated to promote the common prosperity. Compared with small and medium-sized cities, the promotion effect of big cities is higher. On the one hand, big cities take industry as the core symbiotic environment, and activate the tourism market and cultivate tourism talents under the advantage of population size. On the other hand, small and medium-sized cities take population as the core symbiotic environment, and the utilization efficiency of rural tourism resources is effectively improved after population return. Therefore, large, medium and small cities can realize the common prosperity of rural tourism destinations. In brief, county urban-rural integration development has become a practical starting point to promote common prosperity. Based on the development scenario of rural tourism, this paper provides forward-looking thinking for major national practical problems.

This study aims to integrate phenology research theories, methods, and data into the fields of tourism and climate change. Using first flowering date and last flowering date of 18 species during 1973-1996 and 2003-2012 in two phenological observation sites (Beibei and Renshou) from China Phenological Observation Network, and over 800 data records of the date on blossom viewing festival during 1987-2014 from authoritative newspapers in the study area, the impact of climate change on blossom viewing tourism and human adaptive behavior was assessed by methods of time series analysis and correlation analysis. The results showed that: (1) Climate change generally has positive impacts on blossom viewing activities in Sichuan and Chongqing, China. It extended the blossom viewing season length for 50% (9 species) of plants, and shortened it for 27.8% (5 species) of plants. Among the preferred viewing species in China, climate change was found to benefit the blossom viewing and tourism activities of camellia and mountain peach, but had a detrimental effect on purple magnolia. (2) Air temperature emerged as the primary factor influencing the blossom viewing season length. An increase of 1 ℃ in air temperature one month prior to the flowering date extended the blossom viewing season length by 5.99-7.57 days or shortened it by 1.99 days. Similarly, 1 ℃ increase in air temperature three months before the flowering date extended the blossom viewing season length by 4.41-11.71 days or shortened it by 2.26-4.99 days. (3) 50% of the organizers of blossom viewing activities were unaware of the impact of climate change and had not implemented appropriate strategies to adapt to it. Additionally, 50% of the festival dates were adjusted based on changes in air temperature. The study recommends adopting a scientific approach that adjusts the dates of blossom viewing festivals according to phenological dynamics. The study's findings offer a scientific foundation for directing the public and tourists in engaging in blossom viewing tourism. Additionally, they contribute to the scientific planning of plant landscapes in tourist destinations. This holds considerable theoretical importance and practical value, enhancing the climate change impact assessment and adaptation research framework. It also broadens the scope of tourism science research, establishes a novel discipline development direction, and furnishes a theoretical foundation for the tourism industry to address climate change.

Achieving a balance between environmental conservation and tourism development, and addressing the negative effects of seasonal fluctuations are crucial for the high-quality development of ecotourism destinations. Touristification serves as a prevalent strategy to address these challenges in these areas. However, existing research on touristification lacks effective analytical tools and explanatory mechanisms, making it difficult to delineate the evolution stages, causal mechanisms, and spatiotemporal impacts of tourism development over time. This paper extends the application of touristification theory through a case study, constructing a spatiotemporal model of touristification. Employing observation methods, interviews, and the collection of secondary data, we have obtained multi-source data to delineate the over-two-decade touristification process of the Sayram Lake scenic area in Xinjiang, from an ecological pasture to a mature ecotourism destination. Our study elucidates the multidimensional evolution of touristification and the developmental logic of its various stages. The findings reveal that Sayram Lake has undergone four distinct stages of touristification: government-led internal spatial touristification, government-led external spatial touristification, enterprise-led in-depth spatiotemporal touristification and government and enterprise-led off-peak temporal touristification. In general, tourism destination exhibited an initial internal then external touristification; the focus shifted from the high season and daytime first, then touristification to night-time and off-peak periods. Each stage of touristification at Sayram Lake intersects with the others, each with distinct key issues and driving forces at play. Internal touristification is key to building attractions, while external touristification is crucial for enhancing accessibility, and both should be harmonized. This paper introduces a new touristification model that provides analytical tools to understand the evolutionary patterns of touristification, the causal relationships at different stages, and their impacts. The model offers guidance for balancing conservation and development in ecotourism destinations, resolving the supply and demand contradictions between peak and off-peak seasons, and promoting high-quality development. By providing case studies and pathways, this model serves as a reference for stakeholders in ecotourism to effectively navigate the complexities of touristification.

Taking "elements➝structure➝function" as the logical main line, we try to explore the coupling and coordination mechanism of harmonious and beautiful rural construction and tourism urbanization. The improved coupling and coordination model, Gini coefficient and Tapio decoupling index are used to analyze the coupling and coordination level, regional differences and obstacle factors of the five central cities in the Wuling Mountain Area in the period of 2002-2021. The results show that: (1) The level of harmonious and beautiful countryside and tourism urbanization show a fluctuating upward trend, the growth rate of tourism urbanization is lower than that of harmonious and beautiful countryside, and there is an obvious imbalance in the region. Among them, Zhangjiajie city has the highest level of tourism urbanization, and Tongren city has the highest level of harmonious and beautiful countryside. (2) Harmonious and beautiful rural construction and tourism urbanization present coupling and mutual feedback characteristics, realizing the type transition from basic to moderate coordination, with spatial differences narrowing first and then expanding, and the stability of the coordination state is stronger in 2018-2019, but it is difficult to leap to the stage of high-quality coordination in the short term; the trend of the degree of coordination in each city and state is consistent, showing that "Huaihua city>Zhangjiajie city>Enshi prefecture>Xiangxi prefecture>Tongren city". (3) There is a positive facilitating effect between the construction of harmonious and beautiful countryside and tourism urbanization, with expansive negative decoupling and weak decoupling as the main types. Cultural revitalization and social welfare are the main obstacle factors restricting the coordination between harmonious and beautiful rural construction and tourism urbanization in the Wuling Mountain Area.

How to transform ecological resources into a source of wealth is the core concern of the mechanism for realizing ecological resources value, and also a crucial approach for promoting rural revitalization through the development of rural industries in China. Based on the longitudinal single case study method, combined with the theory of endowment structure in new structural economics, this paper takes the Shanbao community of Tongzi county, Guizhou province as the typical research case. It investigates the transformation process of the ecological summer tourism industry in Shanbao community from the perspective of grassroots governance and explores the historical cause-and-effect mechanism by which ecological resources are transformed into the development of the tourism industry. The research findings are as follows: First, "endowment structure advantage & rural talented person demonstration" constitutes the intrinsic foundation for the embryonic development of rural ecological tourism industry. Second, grassroots governance plays a key role in accurately identifying and dealing with infrastructure deficiencies, which lowers the development costs of the industry and attracts external production elements. Third, grassroots governance has a positive effect on discovering operational problems in the development of industry, and it reintegrates internal and external production elements to reduce the institutional costs of industrial development through organizational innovation and institutional construction. Last but not the least, "effective grassroots governance & effective markets" drives the continuous and cumulative development of the rural ecological tourism industry, achieving the transition of the tourism industry from quantity to quality in the process. The research conclusions not only provide new ideas for promoting the realization and revitalization of ecological resources value in rural area, but also offer a theoretical logic that can be applied to grassroots governance for the prosperity of rural industries.

The rapid development of rural tourism not only induces changes in the morphology of cultivated land utilization but also propels the structural transformation of cultivated land use functions. The focus on the diverse uses of traditional resources is highlighted by the new perspectives on tourism resources, supporting the idea that cultivated land provides multiple functions in rural destinations. Our research employs the trade-off/synergistic perspective to investigate the sustainable development issue resulting from the multifunctional transformation of cultivated land during the evolution of rural tourism destinations. To do an empirical study for this aim, we chose Zhongyuan township in Jiangxi province. First, by building an index system, we quantitatively measured the multifunctional level of cultivated land. Next, we used a geographic detector to analyze the factors that influence the multifunctional level of cultivated land. Finally, we used the Sperman rank correlation coefficient to analyze the trade-off/synergistic relationships. The results show that: (1) During the period, the indexes of comprehensive function and cultural function of cultivated land increased, but those of production, living and ecological function decreased. (2) During the age of rapid development, natural factors primarily influence the multi-functionality of cultivated land in rural tourism destinations. As for the stable consolidation phase, the supply capacity of recreational facilities and transportation services has a noticeable impact, and the degree of factor interaction varies. (3) Although there is often a synergistic relationship, there is rarely a clear trade-off relationship between the many functions of cultivated land. The highest level of synergy between the several functions of cultivated land has shifted from "production-life" to "production-culture", as a result of the fast development of rural tourism destinations that are now entering the stage of consolidation and development. The theoretical goal of our research is to show that the role of cultivated land resources is complex and can lead to structural alterations between various sub-functions as rural tourism grows. This tells us that, practically speaking, we ought to increase the range of options available to us so as to make use of the resources found on cultivated land. Leveraging market forces may be necessary to fully realize the variety of ways and forms of employing cultivated land resources, which will lead to the creation of unique and diversified tourism products, within strict compliance to rules for the conservation of cultivated land resources.
