Water quality study of the Struma river basin, Bulgaria (1989–1998)
Abstract
The present paper deals with an estimation of the water quality of the Struma river. Long-term trends, seasonal patterns and data set structures are studied by the use of statistical analysis. Nineteen sampling sites along the main river stream and different tributaries were included in the study. The sites are part of the monitoring net of the region of interest. Seventeen chemical indicators of the surface water have been measured in the period 1989–1998 in monthly intervals. It is shown that the water quality is relatively stable throughout the monitoring period, which is indicated by a lack of statistically significant trends for many of the sites and by chemical variables. Several seasonal patterns are observed at the sampling sites and four latent factors are identified as responsible for the data set structure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
