Look up papers by Stuart Hurlburt, who points up commonly-made errors in
ecological research. Two of note are his paper on pseudoreplication (in
Ecological Monographs, circa 1989, I think) and "The Spatial
Distribution of the Montane Unicorn" (I don't recall the journal).

Found references to two of Hurlbert's papers:
Hurlbert, S. H. 1984. Pseudoreplication and the design of ecological
field experiments. Ecological Monographs 54:187-211.
Hurlbert, S. H. 1990. Spatial distribution of the montane unicorn.
Oikos. 58: 257-271.

How does one compute the null distribution for the
Mann-Kendall test of monotone trend? The table in Hollander
Wolfe has lots of gaps in it, and my sample size is too
small for a normal approximation.
Thank you.
