Wielowymiarowa analiza statystyczna zanieczyszczenia powietrza w krajach Unii Europejskiej
Multivariate statistical analysis of air emissions in the European Union states

Summary/Abstract: Air emissions accounts record the flows of gaseous and particulate materials from the national economy into the atmosphere. After joining the atmosphere, the emitted substances are out of any human control and become part of natural materials cycles and may induce several types of environmental impacts. Across the EU Member States, the contributions by the various economic activities and households to total national greenhouse gas emissions differ. These differences are, in part, due to different economic structures and different mixes of non-renewable and renewable energy sources. This paper presents multivariate statistical analysis of greenhouse gas emission (CO2, N2O, CH4) based on data reported by EUROSTAT. It presents an analysis of air quality with the application of multidimensional scaling and linear ordering. The results show that air quality has improved although not all EU countries reached a similar level of improvement. All calculations will be done in R software.
