Cynthia,

The placement of the staccato, also fingerings, articulations, and dynamics,
can be place above a note using "^" and below a note using "_" in place of
the "-."

Section 1.285 "staccato" of the 2.19.15 LilyPond Music Glossary says:
Staccato is indicated by a dot above or below the note head.  Gardner Read
("Music Notation:  A Manual of Modern Practice") agrees with this and has a
little picture showing a stem-up note with a dot just beneath the note-head
and a stem-down note with a dot just above the note-head.

Ordinarily, LP follows both Read's and its own guideline on the placement of
the dot, e.g., the following snippet:

        \version "2.19.15"

        \relative c'' { g8-. a-. b-. c-. d-. e-. f-. g-. a-. b-. c-.}

yields:
