This paper examines the convergence of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in OECD countries. Specifically, we are interested in examining to what extent the per capita emissions of different countries tend to draw closer over time. This issue is important since this question is associated with...

This paper applies Markov-switching multifractal (MSM) processes to model and forecast carbon dioxide (CO2) emission price volatility, and compares their forecasting performance to the standard GARCH, fractionally integrated GARCH (FIGARCH) and the two-state Markov-switching GARCH (MS-GARCH)...
