ORDERED ALTERNATIVES: A MEANS OF IMPROVING POWER
In analysis of variance settings it is often known that if there are any differences among the means, those differences will fall in a particular order. The usual F test used to look for the existence of differences is not sensitive to the particular order. This paper presents two procedures from the nonparametric literature which have sensitivity to the suggested ordering. The analogy is drawn between these procedures and the two-sample t test. The paper concludes with a simulation study which investigates the power properties of the proposed tests and makes comparisons with the F test
CONDITIONING PLOTS AND DESIGNED EXPERIMENTS
Conditioning plots (coplots) are useful graphics for displaying values of response variables conditional on the values of given (conditioning) variables. We present a principles guide for construction of coplots when the data or statistics come from studies based on designed experiments, and illustrate the usefulness of these coplots in interpreting results. We have found coplots to be useful in our statistical consulting work, and illustrate our approach so that others may find them useful. Coplots in traditional and in trellis displays are provided
The role of physical processes controlling the behaviour of radionuclide contaminants in the aquatic environment: a review of state-of-the-art modelling approaches
This paper is aimed at presenting and discussing the methodologies implemented in state-of-the-art models for predicting the physical processes of radionuclide migration through the aquatic environment, including transport due to water currents, diffusion, settling and re-suspension. Models are briefly described, model parameter values reviewed and values recommended. The different modelling approaches are briefly classified and the advantages and disadvantages of the various model approaches and methodologies are assesse

Testing models for predicting the behaviour of radionuclides in aquatic systems
The paper describes the main results of the international EMRAS model testing exercise for radionuclide
transport in watershed-river and estuarine systems. The exercises included the following scenarios:
multi-point source of 3
H discharge into the Loire River (France), radioactive contamination of the
Dnieper–Southern Boug estuary (Ukraine), remobilisation of radionuclide contamination from the
Pripyat River floodplain (Ukraine) following the Chernobyl accident, release of radionuclides into the
Techa River (Russia) and behaviour of 226Ra in the Huelva estuary (Spain
