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

On distribution-free multiple comparisons in the one-way analysis of variance
TL;DR: In this paper, two methods are described for conducting distribution-free multiple comparisons of k > 2 populations, one based on pairwise rankings and the other based on the Steel-Dwass method.

Dynamics of sedimentation in a tide-dominated backbarrier salt marsh, Norfolk, UK
Jonathan R. French,Tom Spencer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 5-year horizon burial of artificial markers was used to determine the rate and pattern of vertical accretion within a large backbarrier salt marsh on the UK east coast, and the spatial variability in accretion is a joint function of elevation-dependent inundation frequency and sediment removal from water masses advected across channel margins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic Value of Immunocytologic Detection of Bone Marrow Metastases in Neuroblastoma
TL;DR: Immunocytologic analysis of bone marrow aspirates is more sensitive than conventional analysis in detecting tumor cells and provides prognostic information, and the relations among marrow metastases, age at diagnosis, and clinical outcome illustrate the biologic heterogeneity of neuroblastoma.
