In environmental and medical studies, multivariate data are often recorded over regular time intervals and examined for monotone increasing or decreasing trends in one or more of the variables. Dietz and Killeen (J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 76 (1981) 169) proposed a non-parametric test based on the Ken

Data from monitoring projects often include sampling or analytical changes that preclude trend analysis on the entire period of record. A modification of the nonparametric Kendall's test for monotonic trends, which accounts for such changes in the period of record, is described here. This approach b
The recently reported tendencies toward decreasing total amounts of silicate in the Baltic Sea are investigated by use of non-parametric trend analysis. The period 1968-1986 showed significant falling trends in surface waters from the whole system. The deepest parts of the Baltic proper did in contr
A rank test is preaented for analysis of incomplete unbalanced designs, i.e. for designs that may have been originally planned to be either balanced or unbalanced and where some observations may be missing at random. This test is a modification of the procedure of BENARD and VAN EL-TEREN (1953) base
