bcpw: Hamed (2009) Bias Corrected Prewhitening.

In modifiedmk: Modified Versions of Mann Kendall and Spearman's Rho Trend Tests

Description

Hamed (2009) proposed a prewhitening technique in which the slope and lag-1 serial correltaion coefficient are simultaneously estimated. The lag-1 serial correlation coefficient is then corrected for bias before prewhitening.

Usage

bcpw(x)

Arguments

x	- Time series data vector

Details

Employs ordinary least squares (OLS) to simultaneously estimate the lag-1 serial correlation coefficient and slope of trend. The lag-1 serial correlation coefficient is then bias corrected.

Value

Z-Value - Mann-Kendall Z-statistic after bias corrected prewhitening

Prewhitened Sen's Slope - Sen's slope of the prewhitened data

Sen's Slope - Sen's slope for the original data series 'x'

P-value - p-value after prewhitening

S - Mann-Kendall 'S' statistic

Var(s) - Variance of 'S'

Tau - Mann-Kendall's Tau
