Abstract

We evaluated the water quality(13 variables) in a Pyropia cultivation farm in Seocheon, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, using a multivariate analysis from September 2019 to March 2020. The pairwise simple correlation matrix among variables was shown. The first four principal components explained 79% of the total sample variance. The first principal component(z₁) showed the freshwater inflow and precipitation, the z₂ related to seasonal influence, the z₃ related to season and/or freshwater, and the z₄ related to transparency. The present study is the first step for the data-base and future-oriented Pyropia cultivation
