Factor Analysis of Sphericity and Roundness Statistics and Correspondence Analysis of Size Statistics of the Sediments of Gujarat Coast
Subscribe/Renew Journal
R-mode factor analysis was carried out on the four sample statistics of two-dimensional projection sphericity and those of two-dimensional projection roundness of beach sand grains ranging in size from 0.3 mm to 0.149 mm. The third factor loadings show that the grains possess bimodality. The factor score interpretations thereof clearly explain this phenomenon in terms of the mixing of sediments from fluvial and marine sources. Correspondence analysis was used to visually represent an interrelationship between individuals (i.e. samples) and attributes (i.e. variables such as size statistics) on the same factorial axes. It is again revealed that sorting does not co-vary with kurtosis suggesting bimodal size distribution.
