Given the extreme dependence of agriculture on weather conditions, this paper analyses the effect of climatic variations on this economic sector, by considering both a huge dataset and a flexible spatio-temporal model specification. In particular, we study the response of N-fertilizer...

We propose a new spatio--temporal model with time--varying spatial weighting matrices. The filtering procedure of the time--varying unknown parameters is performed using the information contained in the score of the conditional distribution of the observables. We provide conditions for the...

We propose a new class of models specifi cally tailored for spatio-temporal data analysis. To this end, we generalize the spatial autoregressive model with autoregressive and heteroskedastic disturbances, i.e. SARAR(1,1), by exploiting the recent advancements in Score Driven (SD) models...
