Abstract

The importance of considering statistical power in marine pollution studies is unequivocal. However, the vast majority of ecological literature on power analysis focuses on parametric rather than non-parametric tests. This note describes a Monte Carlo simulation method for estimating the power of non-parametric tests. The method is illustrated using ordinal data. Copyright © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
