Abstract
Time series from various fields, such as geophysics, meteorology, hydr ology, air pollution, often display long-range dependence and small-sc ale behaviour (fractality). This paper develops a new class of stochas tic models to represent such properties. An efficient estimation proce dure is described and tested on two concentration time series collecte d in an environmental wind tunnel. These time series simulate two diff erent types of odour sources and possess quite different statistical p roperties that are well described by the new model. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
