Abstract
This study was estimated water quality to raw water quality management of the Maeri intake station in the Nakdong River using Multivariate Analysis. The results of Principle Component Analysis was explained up to 76.9% of total water quality by three principle components. The 1st, 2nd was explained 44.7%, 17.9% and third was explained 14.3%. Also, the three factors was derived from Factor Analysis. The 1st factor was estimated as the matabolism and organic matter pattern related to algal growth. The 2nd factor was judged as the pollution of pattern related to the discharge from stream of the Nakdong River and 3rd factor was viewed as the hydrological variation pattern related to particle matter. The results of Cluster Analysis were classified into three groups.
