A fast and accurate graphical means to determine the precision of sampling plans for log-normally distributed air pollutants

J. G. Kretzschmar

Research output › peer-review

Abstract

The paper describes a graphical method for the determination of the confidence interval for the exact 50th percentile as a function of the sampling plan and the geometric standard deviation. The method is based on the assumption that the data are log-normally distributed.
