From: Sensitivity Analysis of a Fire Spread Model in a Chaparral Landscape
Input (units) | μ, σ of the data | Shapiro-Wilks W for selected transform | Assigned distribution |
|---|---|---|---|
Wind speed (km/hr) | 12.83, 6.25 | W = 0.9833, p-value = 0.0016 (inverse transform) | Normal |
Fine dead fuel moisture (%) | 8.59, 4.64 | W = 0.9809, p-value = 0.0006 (natural log transform) | Normal |
Wind direction (degrees) | 56.60, 13.04 | W = 0.9798, p-value = 0.0003 (square root transform) | Normal |
