The analysis was done with the joint dataset consisting of 106 chemicals sampled across 10 locations.
The dataset covers 19 years from 1996 to 2016. The analysis was done as follows,
Contents
Initial Analysis
On inspection it can be observed that the chemicals have not been sampled consistently.There are chemicals which have been sampled across all years and those which have been sampled across some years.Due to this the chemicals can be grouped as follows:
- The following are the chemicals measured across all the years:
- The following are the chemicals that have been measured over the recent years: (2014-2016)
- This shows that there is inconsistency in the data. The following plot shows the number of recordings, taken across the years in the 10 locations:
The Horizon Plot
- The following horizon plot was used to identify chemicals that stood out at different intensities. Through the horizon plot across the regions, a seasonal pattern can be observed in the water temperature with higher values during the months of June, July and August, indicative of summer months.
- On further plotting, it was also found that as the average water temperature increases, there is a decrease in the value of dissolved oxygen.
- The horizon plot can be accessed at the following Link:
Analysis by Chemicals
