MannKendallc: Mann-Kendall Test Corrected

MannKendallcR Documentation

Mann-Kendall Test Corrected

Description

Time series data is often influenced by serial-correlation. When data is not random and influenced by auto-correlation, Modified Mann-Kendall tests are to be used in trend detection. Yue and Wang (2004) have proposed variance correction approach to address the issue of serial correlation in Trend analysis. Trend is removed from the series and effective sample size is calulated using significant serial correlation coefficients.

Usage

MannKendallc(x)

Arguments

x

Time series data vector.

Value

Returns the geographical weights distance among environmental layers or variables.
