Source apportionment of river water pollution is critical in water resource management and aquatic conservation. Comprehensive application of various GIS-based multivariate statistical methods was performed to analyze datasets (2009-2011) on water quality in the Liao River system (China). Cluster analysis (CA) classified the 12 months of the year into three groups (May-October, February-April and November-January) and the 66 sampling sites into three groups (groups A, B and C) based on similarities in water quality characteristics. Discriminant analysis (DA) determined that temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, chemical oxygen demand (COD) 5-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD₅), NH₄⁺-N, total phosphorus (TP) and volatile phenols were significant variables affecting temporal variations, with 81.2% correct assignments. Principal component analysis (PCA) and positive matrix factorization (PMF) identified eight potential pollution factors for each part of the data structure, explaining more than 61% of the total variance. Oxygen-consuming organics from cropland and woodland runoff were the main latent pollution factor for group A. For group B, the main pollutants were oxygen-consuming organics, oil, nutrients and fecal matter. For group C, the evaluated pollutants primarily included oxygen-consuming organics, oil and toxic organics.
河流水污染的源解析在水资源管理和水生生物保护中至关重要。运用了各种基于地理信息系统的多元统计方法对辽河系统(中国)2009 - 2011年的水质数据集进行综合分析。聚类分析(CA)根据水质特征的相似性将一年中的12个月分为三组(5月至10月、2月至4月和11月至1月),并将66个采样点分为三组(A组、B组和C组)。判别分析(DA)确定温度、溶解氧(DO)、pH值、化学需氧量(COD)、五日生化需氧量(BOD₅)、NH₄⁺-N、总磷(TP)和挥发酚是影响时间变化的显著变量,正确分类率达81.2%。主成分分析(PCA)和正定矩阵因子分解(PMF)确定了数据结构各部分的八个潜在污染因子,解释了总方差的61%以上。农田和林地径流中的耗氧有机物是A组的主要潜在污染因子。对于B组,主要污染物是耗氧有机物、石油、营养物质和粪便。对于C组,评估的污染物主要包括耗氧有机物、石油和有毒有机物。
