The sustainable development rule implementation is tested by the application of chemometrics in the field of environmental pollution. A data set consisting of Cd, Pb, Cr, Zn, Cu, Mn, Ni, and Fe content in bottom sediment samples collected in the Odra River (Germany/Poland) is treated using cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and source apportionment techniques. Cluster analysis clearly shows that pollution on the German bank is higher than on the Polish bank. Two latent factors extracted by PCA explain over 88 % of the total variance of the system, allowing identification of the dominant semi-natural and anthropogenic pollution sources in the river ecosystem. The complexity of the system is proved by MLR analysis of the absolute principal component scores (APCS). The apportioning clearly shows that Cd, Pb, Cr, Zn and Cu participate in an anthropogenic source profile, whereas Fe and Mn are semi-natural. Multiple regression analysis indicates that for particular elements not described by the model, the amounts vary from 4.2 % (Mn) to 13.1 % (Cr). The element Ni participates to some extent to each source and, in this way, is neither pure semi-natural nor pure anthropogenic. Apportioning indicates that the whole heavy metal pollution in the investigated river reach is 12510.45 mg.kg(-1). The contribution of pollutants originating from anthropogenic sources is 9.04 % and from semi-natural sources is 86.53 % (C) Versita Warsaw and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. All rights reserved.
