    Controlling factors of groundwater hydrochemistry in a small island's aquifer
    (Springer, 2007) A. Z. Aris; M. H. Abdullah; A. Ahmed; K. K. Woong
    Factor analysis was applied to the hydrochemical data set of Manukan Island in order to extract the principal factors corresponding to the different sources of variation in the hydrochemistry. The application of varimax rotation was to ensure the clear definition of the main sources of variation in the hydrochemistry. The geochemical data of dissolved major, minor and trace constituents in the groundwater samples indicates the main processes responsible for the geochemistry evolution. By using Kaiser normalization, principal factors were extracted from the data for each location.
