Abstract: Based on the panel data of 47 counties in Dabei Mountain area from 2011 to 2020, the SBM model, ML index and its decomposition index were used to calculate and evaluate the static efficiency and dynamic efficiency, and the Tobit model was used to analyze the influencing factors. The results showed that the ecological static efficiency of Dabie Mountain showed an increasing trend and differentiated development characteristics. The ecological dynamic efficiency of Dabie Mountain showed a fluctuating growth trend, which was mainly due to the gain effect of technological progress. Digital economy, green innovation, economic development, industrial structure and environmental regulation promoted the improvement of ecological efficiency, while energy consumption and population size were inhibiting factors. Therefore, it was necessary to make good use of digital technology to enable ecological protection and tackle key problems of green and low-carbon technology; improve regional environmental regulations and foster new driving forces for green development; promote high-quality development of the regional economy and accelerate the green transformation of the industrial structure.

Key words: ecological efficiency, digital economy, Dabie Mountain area, superefficiency SBM-ML index, Tobit model
