Relationship between technological progress, capital elasticity and emissions of industrial pollutants for the production sectors in Catalonia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a fully specified model of long-run growth in which knowledge is assumed to be an input in production that has increasing marginal productivity, which is essentially a competitive equilibrium model with endogenous technological change.

TL;DR: In this article, a modified maximum likelihood procedure is proposed for estimating intra-block and inter-block weights in the analysis of incomplete block designs with block sizes not necessarily equal, and the method consists of maximizing the likelihood, not of all the data, but of selected error contrasts.

TL;DR: The relationship between economic growth and environmental quality is not fixed along a country's development path and it may change as a country reaches a level of income at which people can demand and afford a more efficient infrastructure and a cleaner environment as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an efficient and effective implementation of the Newton-Raphson (NR) algorithm for estimating the parameters in mixed-effects models for repeated-measures data.
