Testing persistence of ammonia emissions using historical data of more than two centuries in OECD countries

We examine the historical time series data of ammonia emissions from 1770 to 2019 in 37 OECD countries by looking at its statistical properties to determine if the series display time trends and persistence. These two properties are very common in environmental data, and our results indicate that re...
