tau value was used to assess whether the trend was
positive or negative and the significance of the trend was determined using the p value
(p < 0.05 = significant).
When multiple correlations are undertaken, there is a chance that some will be found
to be significant purely by chance. In order to deal with this potential problem, the
Benjamini-Hochberg False Discovery Rate (FDR) method was applied to the results of
the Mann-Kendall test. Further justification for this statistical approach
