Abstract:The Betwa River Basin, a subbasin of the Yamuna, is the oldest owing water system in Central India.Factor analysis and principal component analysis (FA/PCA) were multivariate statistical techniques used to extract three and four varimax factors that explained 96.408 and 100.00 percent of the total variance in water quality, respectively. Cluster analysis (CA) categorizes observed items into distinct quality categories based on correlations between stations and years. Point industrial/sewage e uents, non-point … Show more
