Abstract:
|
Ozone data from several sites along the US-Mexico border are analyzed using a time series approach. The analysis disaggregates prior data taken from 1999--2006, and using ANOVA investigates site and seasonal differences. Simultaneous confidence intervals for the site means are presented to facilitate ranking of the ozone sites.
