Four environmental factors could be extracted from the relationship of elements due to lower dimension. PC1 was influenced by the land use in the river area. PC2 captured the geological background. PC3 captured the mixing-diluting effect that occurs in rivers. PC4 effectively captured the effects of domestic wastewater and the effects of closed mines. The effects of the closed mines could be confirmed using the PC4 score for the Okawa River and the Akagawa River. By examining the elemental relationships obtained using these mathemati
