The correlation and their concomitant factors between some metal element contents in the soils of Chaohekou Area,Liaoning Province,have been comprehensively studied by correlation and regression analysis.Results show that correlation coefficient for elements more or less similar in geochemical properties attained a significant or a very significant level.Four principal factors were selected by principal factor analysis,they represented 92% of measurement information for 14 elements.Taking the eigenvector corresponding to the first and the second principal factor as Axis X,Axis Y respectively,the 14 elements were divided into 5 groups,and regression equations were established for most the elements.It is also shown that the accumulation characteristic of the elements are affected by the source of elements and by external environmental conditions as well.
