pwmk: Mann-Kendall Test of Prewhitened Time Series Data in Presence...

Description Usage Arguments Details Value References Examples

View source: R/pwmk.R

Description

When time series data are not random and influenced by autocorrelation, prewhitening the time series prior to application of trend test is suggested.

Usage

1

Arguments

x

- Time series data vector

Details

The lag-1 serial correlation coefficient is used for prewhitening.

Value

Z-Value - Z statistic after prewhitening

Sen's Slope - Sen's slope for prewhitened series

old. Sen's Slope - Sen's slope for 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
