  Author(s): Mohamed HamedMohamed Hamed
  
  Water quality monitoring has one of the highest priorities in surface water protection policy. Many techniques and methods focus in analyzing the concealing parameters that determine the variance of observed water quality of various source points. A considerable proportion of them mainly depend on statistical methods, multivariate statistical techniques in particular. In the present study, the use of multivariate techniques is required to reduce the large variables number of Nile River water quality upstream Cairo Drinking Water Plants (CDWPs) and determination of relationships among them for easy and robust evaluation. By means of multivariate statistics of principal components analysis (PCA), Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and K-means algorithm for clustering analysis, this study attempted to determine the major dominant factors responsible for the variations of Nile River water quality..
