Nondetects and Data Analysis by Dennis R Helsel

This title offers everything you need to master innovative statistical methods for interpreting and analyzing censored environmental data. Adapting survival analysis methods that have been successfully used in medical and industrial research, the author demonstrates their practical applications for studies of trace chemicals in air, water, soils, and biota. You'll quickly become proficient in these methods through the use of real-world examples that are solved using MINITAB[registered] Release 14 and other commonly used software packages.
"..clearly and efficiently covers a large amount of material in a relatively small number of pages. This is the book I will share with consulting clients who have data with below detection limit values." (Journal of the American Statistical Association, March 2006) "...an excellent addition to an upper level undergraduate course on environmental statistics, and it is a 'must-have' desk reference for environmental practitioners dealing with censored datasets." (Vadose Zone Journal, February 2006)
