Seasonal integration and the evolving seasonals model
International Journal of Forecasting, 1997 Abstract The paper uses a model of seasonality popular in the 1960s, the evolving seasonals model, to explore issues relating to testing for unit roots in seasonal time series. The model is used to show how data can be transformed in such a way that tests for seasonal integration simply become those for regular unit roots.
