Abstract/Summary

This report presents the application of Factor Analysis (FA) using geochemical data of topsoil samples to investigate the geochemical composition and distribution of Pleistocene Tills in East Anglia. The first part of the report introduces the background, aims and context of this particular study. The second part summarises the methodologies, covering Geochemical Baseline Survey of the Environment (G-BASE) sample collection, analytical procedures and the geological setting of the study area. Section 3 presents the results of Factor Analysis, which is followed by a discussion and conclusions.
