Searching for a 3-way model of spatial and seasonal variations in the chemical composition of karstic freshwaters
Barbieri P, Adami G, Reisenhofer E,
Abstract:
A procedure is described for the search of a three,way;principal components model, characterizing a data set concerning the spatial and temporal distribution of the physico-chemical parameters which govern the composition of waters collected from springs, ponds and;rivers of the Karst of Trieste. Ten physico-chemical parameters were determined-for eleven sampling sites and eleven sampling times. A:graphic method was applied in order to find the number of components in each of the three ways of the model, explaining a relatively high quantity of variation of the. data, with a limited number of components, i.e. with descriptive parsimony, and generating interpretable factors. The examination of 125 possible Tucker3 models, having from 1 to 5 components in each of the ways, allowed us to identify the model having two components in each of the three ways as the one satisfying the desired criteria. The chance of reducing to a simpler PARAFAC model has been successfully explored,and two trilinear components were then computed. The first one is mainly related to a spatial factor conditioning the considered waters, while the second is related to a seasonal factor
