Evidence from the ARDL quantile approach}, journal={JOEEP: Journal of Emerging Economies and Policy}, volume={9}, pages={188–197}, year={2024}, author={Ekamena Ntsama, Sabine Nadine and Dr Moudjaré Helgath, Bybert}, keywords={İklim değişikliği, Vergi geliri, ARDL kantil modeli.}, abstract={This study examines the quantile cointegration relationship between climate change and tax revenues in Cameroon. The Quantile Autoregressive Distruted Lag (QARDL) model is used, over the period 1980-2015. The results indicate that the relationship between the variables depends on the quantile. Thus, climate change contributes negatively to the improvement in tax revenue at higher quantiles. In addition, agriculture contributes negatively to the increase in tax revenue at certain quantiles. Variations in climate change (temperature and precipitation) and tax revenues are responsible for past and current changes in agriculture. The results are in line with those found by the ordinary least squares method. These findings have important policy implications for governments and other stakeholders in the Cameroonian context. They will help to improve the level of tax revenues and implement an excellent environmental policy.}, number={2}, publisher={Seyfettin ERDOĞAN}
