Application of positive matrix factorization to identify potential sources of water quality deterioration of Huaihe River, China

Abstract Identification of nonpoint source (NPS) pollution is essential for effective water management. In this study we used a combined approach of hierarchal cluster analysis (HCA) and positive matrix factorization (PMF) to identify NPS pollution for Huaihe River basin in China. NH3-N, COD, DO and...
