✦ Synopsis


menu-driven PC program implementing Blomqvist'a [J. Am. Sfuf. Assn. 72. 746-740, 19773 method for assessing the relationship between rate of change and initial value is described, illustrated and made available. It is shown that the naive approach to this problemcomputing the correlation between the initial value and either the amount or rate of changeresults in a negatively biased estimator. The extent of this bias can be dramatic and may lead investigators to conclude that a negative correlation is present when none exists; or that there is no correlation when in fact the correlation is positive. Blomqvist's (maximum likelihood) estimator avoids this bias, and is obtained by a transformation of the naive estimator. Growth rates Change Initial value Biased estimator PC program

When estimating the dry-canopy evaporation rate of coniferous stands using the Penman-Monteith equation, it is crucial to determine the reference value of surface conductance G s . This paper examines the relationship between canopy height and the reference value of G s based on the maximum value of
