Trends in Spatial Statistics and Spatial Econometrics

Dear Colleagues,

With over fifty years’ worth of contributions to the literature, spatial econometrics is now recognized as a consolidated discipline worldwide. From a theoretical point of view, this field has, for instance, provided information on frequentist and Bayesian estimation techniques to consistently estimate parameters of interest in the presence of spatial dependence. From an empirical point of view, these methods have been used to study several economic phenomena. This Special Issue aims to collect high-quality research papers that contribute to the development of spatial econometrics. Theoretical and applied studies in spatial econometrics can be submitted. We invite authors to submit original research articles as well as review articles in areas of interest, including but not limited to the following: spatial dependence, static and dynamic spatial panel data modeling, time-varying spatial marginal effects, spatial nonlinear modeling, spatial weighting matrix, spatial microeconometrics, resampling methods under spatial dependence, hypothesis tests under spatial dependence, forecasting with spatio-temporal data, spatial factor models, Bayesian methods under spatial dependence, financial spatial econometrics, and endogeneity issues in spatial econometrics.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
