I have a green manure decomposition trail data and nitrogen uptake of potatoes over the growing season. I need to determine synchrony between them. Can I use Pearson correlation? Are there references?
The following two J papers may be helpful:
Terrance D. Loecke, Cynthia A. Cambardella, Matt Liebman. 2012.
