An environmental scientist measures stream temperature daily for 365 days to estimate the annual mean. Consecutive daily temperatures are highly autocorrelated: r = 0.96 (tomorrow closely resembles today). If assuming independence, the standard error would be . What is the actual standard error accounting for autocorrelation?
