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
Two features in time series data: the existence of time trends and the degree of persistence, are examined in this work on the nitrogen oxides emissions from 37 OECD countries. Updated techniques in time series are used that allow for fractional degrees of differentiation in the data. Thus, if the number of differences required is one, nitrogen oxides emissions are not mean reverting in the sense that if there is an exogenous shock (resulting from a technological advancement to change nitrogen oxides emissions), the effect of such shock on nitrogen oxides emissions will be permanent. Time trends are observed in half of the series. For these countries the trend coefficient is found to be positive in all cases. This is an indication that continuous technological progress is needed in taming NO emissions. In addition to developing their own local technologies, less technologically endowed OECD countries should engage in collaboration with the more technologically endowed countries in order to facilitate increase in trans-border transfer of technology. The technologically advanced countries should also strive to continue to introduce better technologies in a bid to reduce NO emissions. Most of the results show evidence for persistence of nitrogen oxides emissions.
