The influence of autocorrelation on the ability to detect trend in hydrological series

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of serial correlation on the performance of the Mann-Kendall (MK) statistic and showed that the presence of a trend alters the estimate of the magnitude of serial correlations.

Global warming benefits the small in aquatic ecosystems

TL;DR: This study provides evidence that reduced body size is the third universal ecological response to global warming in aquatic systems besides the shift of species ranges toward higher altitudes and latitudes and the seasonal shifts in life cycle events.

Trend detection in hydrologic data: The Mann–Kendall trend test under the scaling hypothesis

TL;DR: In this article, the Mann-Kendall test is modified to account for the effect of scaling in hydrologic data, and the results show a considerable reduction in the number of stations with significant trends when the effects of scaling are taken into account.

The Mann-Kendall test modified by effective sample size to detect trend in serially correlated hydrological series

TL;DR: In this paper, effective sample size (ESS) has been proposed to modify the nonparametric Mann-Kendall (MK) statistical test to assess the significance of trend in hydrological time series.

Increasing risk of compound flooding from storm surge and rainfall for major US cities

TL;DR: The co-occurrence of storm surge and heavy precipitation can compound coastal flooding, and the probability of such cooccurrences for the US has increased significantly over the past century as mentioned in this paper.

Estimates of the Regression Coefficient Based on Kendall's Tau

TL;DR: In this article, a simple and robust estimator of regression coefficient β based on Kendall's rank correlation tau is studied, where the point estimator is the median of the set of slopes (Yj - Yi )/(tj-ti ) joining pairs of points with ti ≠ ti.

Rank correlation methods

TL;DR: The measurement of rank correlation was introduced in this paper, and rank correlation tied ranks tests of significance were applied to the problem of m ranking, and variate values were used to measure rank correlation.

Techniques of trend analysis for monthly water quality data

TL;DR: The seasonal Kendall test as discussed by the authors is a nonparametric test for trend applicable to data sets with seasonality, missing values, or values reported as "less than" or values below the limit of detection.

A Nonparametric Trend Test for Seasonal Data With Serial Dependence

TL;DR: In this article, an extension of the Mann-Kendall test for trend in seasonal (e.g., monthly) hydrologic time series is presented, which is robust against nonnormality and censoring.
