Question for method

Tables 1 and 2, below, show an edited data set of some of the components of the 'organizing framework' collected at two sites in Sevilleta. Note that in each of them, 'NA' means that no data are available for that variable in the relevant year.

Table 1

Year	Precipitation/mm	Soil moisture/relative water content	Rabbit density/number of individualshectare¹	Coyote density/number of individualskm²
1989	106.4	NA	NA	NA
1990	232.4	NA	NA	NA
1991	334.7	NA	NA	NA

2002	228.7	0.096	0.072	0.738
2003	133.2	0.100	NA	0.543
2004	301.4	0.112	NA	0.303
2005	277.4	0.110	NA	NA

I am a bit confused about part B they are asking to only use 2 variables in table one i think so i am not sure what to put in my spreadsheet ;

So i have tried doing a graph for the 1 table am i on the right track ?

n	Sample 1	Sample 2	Sample 1	Sample 2
x₁	x₂	Rank (R₁)	Rank (R₂)		x₁	x₂
1	301.9	0.112	19	7.5	Sum (R₁ and R₂) =	155	55
2	325.3	0.123	20	10	Count (n₁ andn₂) =	10	10
3	225.3	0.114	13	9	U values =	0	100
4	235.7	0.094	15	1
5	284.4	0.105	17	5	Medians =	256.55	0.1075
6	214.8	0.095	12	2
7	228.7	0.096	14	3	Test Statistic (U) =	0
8	133.2	0.1	11	4
9	301.4	0.112	18	7.5
10	277.4	0.11	16	6
11					Compare the test statistic (U) against the critical value for n1 and n2 degrees of freedom
12
13					For:
14					n₁ =	10
15					n₂ =	10
16					Critical value	23	Significant p < 0.05
