Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Abstract: This paper examines the impact of renewable energy consumption, economic growth, foreign direct investment inflows and trade on carbon dioxide emissions for a panel of 12 Middle East and North Africa countries over the period 1980–2012 using the recent Panel Vector Autoregressive model with multi-domain analysis framework. The results from Granger causality test reveal a bidirectional causality relationship between the candidate variables supporting the feedback hypothesis. The findings show that economic growth leads to environmental degradation while renewable energy, international trade and foreign direct investment inflows lead to decreases carbon dioxide emissions. A serious shift toward using more renewable energy resources, international trade and foreign direct investment inward is recommended to improve the environmental quality and attain the sustainable growth in the region.
