Why is it important?

This study shows the efficacy of multivariate statistical methods as an efficient exploratory tool for the interpretation of complex water quality data sets and to establish the main factors and mechanisms that control the chemical composition of groundwater which are important and effective for the management of water quality.

Perspectives

I hope this article makes people understand the use of multivariate statistical methods as an efficient exploratory tool for the interpretation of complex water quality data sets and to establish the main factors and mechanisms that control the chemical composition of groundwater in the study area which are important and effective for the management of water quality.
