Change in mean and variance at the Cloquet Forestry Center (CFC) and Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF) in the pre- and post-1976 time periods, as well as the results of the Mann–Kendall test for the significance of trends in time series data, and F test to test differences in variance between the two time periods. Mann–Kendall and F test p-values and test statistics indicate model significant and fit
