Enable users to evaluate long-term trends using a Generalized
Additive Modeling (GAM) approach. The model development includes selecting a
GAM structure to describe nonlinear seasonally-varying changes over time,
incorporation of hydrologic variability via either a river flow or salinity,
the use of an intervention to deal with method or laboratory changes
suspected to impact data values, and representation of left- and
interval-censored data. The approach has been applied to water quality data
in the Chesapeake Bay, a major estuary on the east coast of the United
States to provide insights to a range of management- and research-focused
questions.
