Statistical Analysis of the Phosphate Data of the World Ocean Database 2013
share
The phosphate data of the World Ocean Database 2013 are extensively statistically analyzed by splitting the measurement results into a long scale, i.e., climatological, and a short scale part. Means, medians, absolute and relative standard deviations, interquartile ranges, quartile coefficients of dispersion, correlations and covariances are estimated and analyzed. The underlying probability distributions are investigated using visual inspection as well as statistical tests. All presented methods are applicable to other data as long as they satisfy the postulated assumptions.
