Evaluation of statistical methods for quantifying fractal scaling in water-quality time series with irregular sampling
River water-quality time series often exhibit fractal scaling, which here refers to autocorrelation that decays as a power law over some range of scales. Fractal scaling presents challenges to the identification of deterministic trends because (1) fractal scaling has the potential to lead to fal...
