Water quality data are often collected at different sites over time to improve water
quality management. Water quality data usually exhibit the following characteristics:
non-normal distribution, presence of outliers, missing values, values below detection limits
(censored), and serial dependence. It is essential to apply appropriate statistical methodology
when analyzing water quality data to draw valid conclusions and hence provide useful
advice in water management. In this chapter, we will provide and demonstrate various
statistical tools for analyzing such water quality data, and will also introduce how to use
a statistical software R to analyze water quality data by various statistical methods. A
dataset collected from the Susquehanna River Basin will be used to demonstrate various
statistical methods provided in this chapter. The dataset can be downloaded from website
