A criterion for environmental assessment using Birnbaum–Saunders attribute control charts

Assessing environmental risk is useful for preventing adverse effects on human health in highly polluted cities. We design a criterion for environmental monitoring based on an attribute control chart for the number of dangerous contaminant levels when the concentration to be monitored follows a Birnbaum–Saunders distribution. This distribution is being widely applied to environmental data. We provide a novel justification for its usage in …
