Assessment of surface water quality using multivariate statistical techniques: A case study of the Fuji river basin, Japan

Product Description
This digital document is a journal article from Environmental Modelling and Software, published by Elsevier in 2007. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
Multivariate statistical techniques, such as cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), factor analysis (FA) and discriminant analysis (DA), were applied for the evaluation of temporal/spatial variations and the interpretation of a large complex water quality data set of the Fuji river basin, generated during 8 years (1995-2002) monitoring of 12 parameters at 13 different sites (14@?976 observations). Hierarchical cluster analysis grouped 13 sampling sites into three clusters, i.e., relatively less polluted (LP), medium polluted (MP) and highly polluted (HP) sites, based on the similarity of water quality characteristics. Factor analysis/principal component analysis, applied to the data sets of the three different groups obtained from cluster analysis, resulted in five, five and three latent factors explaining 73.18, 77.61 and 65.39% of the total variance in water quality data sets of LP, MP and HP areas, respectively. The varifactors obtained from factor analysis indicate that the parameters responsible for water quality variations are mainly related to discharge and temperature (natural), organic pollution (point source: domestic wastewater) in relatively less polluted areas; organic pollution (point source: domestic wastewater) and nutrients (non-point sources: agriculture and orchard plantations) in medium polluted areas; and organic pollution and nutrients (point sources: domestic wastewater, wastewater treatment plants and industries) in highly polluted areas in the basin. Discriminant analysis gave the best results for both spatial and temporal analysis. It provided an important data reduction as it uses only six parameters (discharge, temperature, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, electrical conductivity and nitrate nitrogen), affording more than 85% correct assignations in temporal analysis, and seven parameters (discharge, temperature, biochemical oxygen demand, pH, electrical conductivity, nitrate nitrogen and ammonical nitrogen), affording more than 81% correct assignations in spatial analysis, of three different sampling sites of the basin. Therefore, DA allowed a reduction in the dimensionality of the large data set, delineating a few indicator parameters responsible for large variations in water quality. Thus, this study illustrates the usefulness of multivariate statistical techniques for analysis and interpretation of complex data sets, and in water quality assessment, identification of pollution sources/factors and understanding temporal/spatial variations in water quality for effective river water quality management.

Master the Digital Infrared Photography Using Your Digital Slr Nikon

Nikon D70 SLR ideally suits Digital Infrared Photography because of the power that its settings deliver. Next I will show you the camera settings that I use in taking digital infrared photos, thus helping you to get best results out of the Nikon digital SLR. Firstly, you should get a tripod, which is necessary for taking perfect infrared photos, and then choose an infrared filter that you desire - I personally prefer Hoya R72. Then, spend a little time in planning the digital infrared photograph. This will help to eliminate some uncertainties that digital infrared photography brings, that can result in just a photo which is OK, instead of a WOW!! photo. Just like always, there isnt a right way in achieving the results. However, these steps brought me the most success, using the D70 until now.

Type of image: I prefer shooting in RAW mode for the digital infrared photography. Even though Nikons native format NEF is very versatile, it don't stand up to the quality that RAW mode gives, so any imperfections can just be edited using software like Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro.

ISO: Very Good results could be achieved when increasing ISO settings, however, the best results I got were with ISO 200. Otherwise, noise is too great that is my opinion at least. Also, I do a good amount of post processing using Photoshop, so the noise becomes a problem while working at high magnifications. Keep in mind that, unlike the infrared film, where graininess is an important part for the feel and look of the image, the digital infrared noise or "grain" really degrades the image. However, if you need to add an effect of grainy film, you should do this using Photoshop, or using other package.

White Balance: From my experience, setting custom white balance represents a key in GOOD Digital Infrared Photography using Nikon d70. Using a filter which blocks most of the "regular" light, then the camera's inner white balancing mechanism cant give you an accurate measurement for colour temperature of the environment. Because foliage reflects the IR light, by making it the brightest, the whitest part from your photo, in this case you will need to "calibrate" the D70 in order to let him know visible light green equals infrared white. A couple of ways exists for doing this.

First: The simplest method for white balance is opening the menu of the D70, then to use the control button to get to the setting for white balance, and then change this to +3 fluorescent. Because in infrared photography, most likely you will be shooting under bright sunlight using a "red" filter, if you add some false color correction, this gives your IR image more "punch." Also, I have found that the incandescent setting also works.

Second: Other way to adjust the white balance for your digital infrared photography using Nikon D70 is by taking a photo to green grass in full sun at midday. But, try and photograph only the grass - no trees, no feet, no sky. Simply point the camera towards the grass by looking at it straight down, then click! After this, in the menu, you will set white balance using this photo. Hence, go to the menu, and select the white balance, then preset then use photo then select image and then use the control dial for navigating at the image with the grass. The menu should say now "this image > set." And now you are ready for shooting infrared!

Benefits of Using a Digital Camera

The power of digital technology has intervened in most works and imaging is one of them. The digital cameras have established a foothold in the market and are slowly but surely wiping away the film camera market. The digital camera has an edge over film cameras in many ways. The quality of the digital photographs differs from camera to camera and one can choose the digital camera that meets their requirement.

 

The cost and efforts are the major differences in the two forms of cameras. While film cameras cost less, the camera film cost is never ending. Once you have finished your roll of film you need to reload it with another one. The film then has to be developed through a lengthy process and then printed according to your size requirement. Developing the film isn’t an easy task and most of us would prefer doing it from a professional, which adds to the cost. On the other hand, digital cameras have the photos saved on the memory card in the camera. These can be easily transferred to your computer or laptop. They can then be easily printed at your home if you have a printer. The whole process of getting the image in your hand is much simpler and faster.

 

Digital cameras sport user-friendly features and offer array of options. The most useful function is the instant reviewing of your image. The LCD display at the back of the digital camera lets view your images taken and if you are not satisfied with an image you can reshoot it. You can get the right proportion of the image and not miss out on anything. The size of the LCD displays are increasing for better viewing and some cameras like the Sony digital cameras, Nikon digital cameras etc offer LCD display up to 2.5-inches.

 

Many digital cameras also offer video shooting ability. Most digital cameras will get you small video clips and higher cameras like the Canon digital cameras will get you extended video shooting. Digital cameras give you the liberty to shoot in several modes like black and white, sepia, tungsten etc, which will enable you to get varied effects in your picture. You can buy digital camera online from popular online shopping based websites. i.e. http://www.naaptol.com/buy-online/WO-shopping-best-deals-W6O/cameras/digital_cameras.html . These sites have different brands featured and you can get the one that suits your needs and fits your budget. You can also avail great deals and offers on your digital camera purchase.

Using your Digital Camera to Take Great Pictures

Digital photography is a booming business and is slowly going to take over the film camera market. Compact digital cameras are the most popular and common of the camera types. To get a better quality picture you need to increase the number of pixels, so the cameras with more mega pixels will have a sharper image. Underwater digital cameras are small and lightweight, and the quality is comparable to film if you go for the higher resolution shots. Digital pictures have improved dramatically, and are now incredibly clear. The main problem that most have is that after the picture is taken many people don't develop the pictures or don't have a a way to do it.

How exactly does it differ from the traditional camera? Up to the point when the image is captured, the process is the same in both. When you release the shutter the mirror moves out of the way and the image is captured in the same way as any digital camera. Zooming in on a subject works by cropping some of the image out of the picture. The thing to remember is the higher the resolution, the more realistic the image is, matching closest what the actual image is. The image is then enlarged to fill the camera frame, by doing this you will loose the quality of the photograph. If an image is too bright or too dark you can re-take the image.

Digital cameras are not that expensive today a 2 mega pixel camera can be had for less than $50. Also important to note is the memory capacity of the camera. In other words, how many pictures will the camera hold? Understanding a little bit about how pictures are recorded on a digital camera and then subsequently saved on a computer is critical but fairly simple even for a beginner. The key to getting the best possible digital pictures is to make sure the right camera is bought. Digital cameras are becoming more and more popular. Whether your pictures are good or bad it does not matter, with a digital camera you have full control.

In burst mode the camera shoots a fast series of photos for as long as the shutter button is held down or until the camera’s memory is full. In this mode the camera writes the photos to a temporary memory which is very fast but small. When the shutter button is released or the memory is full the camera starts the slow process of writing the photos to the flash memory. Memory is also a very important issue to consider.

In terms of features it may not have any more than a simple point and shoot model. Picture quality is normally an improvement from the more basic cameras. The price of a digital camera printer is lowering whilst the quality is increasing. As far as image quality is concerned, there are a couple factors - picture resolution, presence of noise in the camera, dynamic range, and the color quality of the image. Depending on the camera purchased and the accuracy of the settings, the quality can rival and sometimes even surpass a regular 35mm camera.

Basically, a mega pixel is capable of storing a million bits of information about a photo. Because the digital SLR cameras are more professional, they come with a hefty price tag.
