Multivariate, heterogeneous data has been traditionally analyzed
using the "one at a time" variable approach, often missing the main
objective of discovering the relationships among multiple variables
and samples. Enter chemometrics, with its powerful tools for
design, analysis, and data interpretation of complex environmental
systems. Delineating the rigors of modern environmental analysis
and how to effectively solve limitations through multivariate
approaches, Environmental Chemometrics: Principles and Modern
Applications provides an introduction and practical guide to
chemometric methods used in environmental chemical analysis.
The text begins with an overview of chemometrics in relation to
quantitative environmental analysis and a review of descriptive
statistical concepts. Building on this, the author covers
environmental sampling considerations, experimental design and
optimization techniques, multivariate analysis of environmental and
chemical data sets, time series analysis, and quality assurance and
method validation. Each chapter contains problem-oriented exercises
and research applications from the author's own work and from other
experts in the field.
The author's presentation of the basic principles of these
methods together with real applications in the field of
environmental chemistry makes the comprehension of complex
environmental problems and chemically-related concepts more
accessible. He covers all major areas of environmental analysis
backed by studies from experts in the field. The book is a valuable
tool for understanding the rapidly developing world of chemometric
methods in environmental analysis.
