The value of Z (absolute) is compared to the standard normal cumulative distribution to


determine if there is a trend or not at the selected significance level. A positive/negative value of
Z indicates an upward/downward trend.

According to Mann Kendall test the Z values are 1.019049331 (minimum LST), -0.3396831
(Average LS) and -0.33968311 (Maximum LST). The positive Z value (1.01) represents upward
trend of minimum LST. On the other hand the negative Z value (-0.34) represents downward
