From: Tidal variability of water quality parameters in a mesotidal estuary (Sado Estuary, Portugal)

Principal component analysis (PCA) considering the data collected in the sampling stations A, B and D. Samples classified according to the month of the data collection (May/18, Nov/18 and Jun/19) and the respective tidal amplitude (NT and ST). T temperature, S salinity, %DO dissolved oxygen, SPM suspended particulate matter, Chl_a chlorophyll a and Si silicate Si(OH)4. The figure was produced using PRIMER 6 (6.1.16) + PERMANOVA (1.0.6) software from PRIMER-e (https://www.primer-e.com/).
