TY - JOUR A1 - Bürger, Gerd T1 - A conundrum of trends BT - comment on a paper by Lischeid et al. (2021) JF - Journal of hydrology N2 - This comment is meant to reiterate two warnings: One applies to the uncritical use of ready-made (openly available) program packages, and one to the estimation of trends in serially correlated time series.
