TLDR
An ideal text for an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate course, Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Second Edition is also an invaluable source for professionals who want to keep abreast of the latest developments within this dynamic branch of modern statistics.Abstract:
This Second Edition of Myles Hollander and Douglas A. Wolfe's successful Nonparametric Statistical Methods meets the needs of a new generation of users, with completely up-to-date coverage of this important statistical area. Like its predecessor, the revised edition, along with its companion ftp site, aims to equip readers with the conceptual and technical skills necessary to select and apply the appropriate procedures for a given situation. An extensive array of examples drawn from actual experiments illustrates clearly how to use nonparametric approaches to handle one- or two-sample location and dispersion problems, dichotomous data, and one-way and two-way layout problems. An ideal text for an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate course, Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Second Edition is also an invaluable source for professionals who want to keep abreast of the latest developments within this dynamic branch of modern statistics.read more

Changing sea ice conditions and marine transportation activity in Canadian Arctic waters between 1990 and 2012
TL;DR: In this article, trend and correlation analysis was performed on sea ice area data for total, first-year ice (FYI), and multi-year ICI, and on a comprehensive shipping dataset of observed vessel transits through the vessel traffic reporting Arctic Canada Traffic Zone (NORDREG zone) from 1990 to 2012.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of termites on atmospheric trace gases: CH4, CO2, CHCl3, N2O, CO, H2, and light hydrocarbons
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used field studies of mounds of Australian termites to estimate that on a global scale termites emit about 12 × 1012 g/yr of methane and about 4 × 1015 g CO2/yr (< 8 pg/yr).
Journal ArticleDOI
The expression pattern of plasma membrane aquaporins in maize leaf highlights their role in hydraulic regulation
TL;DR: Quantified and localized the expression of Zea mays plasma membrane aquaporins (ZmPIPs, plasma membrane intrinsic proteins) in the leaf using quantitative RT-PCR and immunodetection and indicated that they are involved in leaf radial water movement, in particular in vascular bundles and the mesophyll.

TL;DR: There is no evidence from this trial that NACT offered any additional objective benefit to patients undergoing RHPPL for suboptimal Stage IB cervical cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
A critique of the use of distribution-based extrapolation models in ecotoxicology
TL;DR: The features and assumptions of recently developed distribution-based extrapolation models that are currently in use (OECD 1991; Van Leeuwen et al. 1992) are examined and it is suggested that the rational use of these models as ecotoxicological tools for environmental regulation requires additional basic knowledge in two areas.
