    The Kendall Tau Trend Test The Mann-Kendall Test is a non-parametric test for trend that does not specify linearity of the trend (Maidment 1993). This robust test can be applied to any annual timeseries of flow data, including annual inches of baseflow, recharge, stream discharge, and estimates of Kb. A modification of the test called the Seasonal Kendall Tau test accounts for serial correlation and is insensitive to seasonality in the data(Hirsch, Slack and Smith 1982). This is used to test for trend in monthly data like the climate division soil moisture and monthly estimates of baseflow. Comparing these two trend tests gives insight on how much of the visible trend in baseflow can be associated with a similar trend in hydrometeorology.

    The Kendall Tau Trend tests were applied to every feasible period of at least ten years within the entire period of record for the gauge data in question, and the probability of a nonrandom trend for that period is returned. These probabilities are plotted in an upper triangular matrix called the Kendall Tau Surface showing which sub-periods of the record demonstrate what trend, with special symbology for when trend probability exceeds the set significance level (Zhang, Dehoff and Pody 2010). The surface represents the K-Tau statistic for every possible sub-period within the entire period of record and the symbols show both the direction and magnitude as significance of the test against the null hypothesis of no monotonic trend.
