Abstract: | A new method for handling correlation problems is described. The multivariate auto- and cross-correlation method allows the calculation of relationships between two functions including one or several variables with respect to changes in time or distance. Two applications from environmental analytical chemistry demonstrate the advantages of the method. Transport rates of heavy metals in river water can easily be measured and sampling procedures for suspended dusts can be rationalized. |
