TLDR
In this paper, a cumulative sum technique which allows distribution-free tests is developed and applied to the problem of detecting a change in median of a rainfall distribution, which can be used to detect changes in rainfall distribution.Abstract:

A Non-parametric Approach to the Change-point Problem
TL;DR: In this paper, non-parametric techniques are introduced for the change-point problem and exact and approximate results are obtained for testing the null hypothesis of no change for zero-one observations, Binomial observations and continuous observations.
Change detection in hydrological records— a review of the methodology
Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz,A. Robson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, general guidance is offered as to the methodology of change detection in time series of hydrological data, embracing stages such as preparing a suitable data set, exploratory analysis, application of adequate statistical tests and interpretation of results.

Nonparametric Control Charts: An Overview and Some Results
TL;DR: An overview of the literature on nonparametric or distribution-free control charts for univariate variables data is presented and connections to some areas of active research are made, such as sequential analysis, that are relevant to process control.

A simple cumulative sum type statistic for the change-point problem with zero-one observations
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple cumulative sum type statistic for the change point with zero-one observations is introduced, and a conditional test of no change against change is introduced and compared with a likelihood ratio test.

Distribution-Free Statistical Tests
TL;DR: Tests are grouped together primarily according to general type of mathematical derivation or type of statistical "information" used in'conducting the test, and mathematical interrelationships among the tests are indicated.

Noah, Joseph, and Operational Hydrology
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of investigations on self-similar operational hydrology are presented, and the present paper introduces and summarizes the results of these studies. But, as a replacement for statistical hydrological models, selfsimilar models appear very promising, and they account particularly well for the remarkable empirical observations of Harold Edwin Hurst.
