Statistical Interpretation of Data [PDF]

open access: possible, 2000
It is commonplace to observe that repeated measurements of what seems to be the same object or phenomenon do not produce identical results. Measurement variation arises from a number of sources, but one root cause is often the finite precision of the measuring tool. If a simple yardstick is used to measure carpet, we expect to obtain a result no better

STATISTICAL MODELS FOR INTERPRETING AEROMAGNETIC DATA

GEOPHYSICS, 1970
A mathematical basis for the application of power spectrum analysis to aeromagnetic map interpretation is developed. An ensemble of blocks of varying depth, width, thickness, and magnetization is considered as a statistical model. With the use of the fundamental postulate of statistical mechanics, a formula which can be used to analyze the power ...

Interpreting Statistical Data

The American Journal of Nursing, 1959
STATISTICS, in its broader sense, refers to a body of methods for obtaining, organizing, and analyzing numerical facts. We should keep in mind that the application of statistical methods is not a sterile exercise. We collect and organize figures for a specific purpose. Generally, we are seeking answers to questions.

Statistical Interpretation of Pollution Data from Satellites

Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets, 1974
The NIMBUS-G environmental monitoring satellite has an instrument (a gas correlation spectrometer) onboard for measuring the mass of a given pollutant within a gas volume. The present paper treats the problem: How can this type measurement be used to estimate the distribution of pollutant levels in a metropolitan area.
