Abstract
The goal of this study was to use statistical methods to create baseline data on uranium and associated physicochemical characteristics in the Bharuch district. The district is 6,527 km2 in size and is situated at 21.7051° N, 72.9959° E. Factor analysis is a crucial tool in statistical analytical approaches for obtaining general relationship between measured varaibles. For the study, 144 samples were collected from the Bharuch district of Gujarat during the pre-monsoon (PRMNS) and post-monsoon (POMNS) seasons. A portable multi-parameter water analysis tool was used to test in-situ water quality parameters on-site. In the laboratory, the uranium concentration and the other parameters were examined. Principle component analysis was performed on the data that led to reduction of 18 parameters to 6 during PRMNS and POMNS periods. The eigenvalue-extracted factor generated 86.01 percent and 86.017 percent variation in the PRMNS and POMNS, respectively.
