Análisis composicional de datos en Ciencias Geoambientales

Abstract

Los datos composicionales (concentraciones) son frecuentes en geociencias. No tener en cuenta el carácter composicional puede llevar a conclusiones erróneas. La correlación espuria ( K. Pearson, 1987) tiene consecuencias devastadores. Partiendo de los Trabajos de J. Aitchison en los años 80, surge una metodología libre de estos inconvenientes. La geometría del simplex permite representar composiciones en coordenadas ortogonales, pudiendo aplicarse métodos estadísticos usuales. Facilita la computación y el análisis. El uso de (log) cocientes evita la interpretación individual de concentraciones desatendiendo su carácter relativo. Se ilustra con un conjunto de análisis hidro-químicos

Compositional data (concentrations) are common in geosciences. Neglecting its character mey lead to erroneous conclusions. Spurious correlation (K. Pearson, 1897) has disastrous consequences. On the basis of the pioneering work by J. Aitchison in the 1980s, a methodology free of these drawbacks is now available. The geometry of the símplex allows the representation of compositions using orthogonal co-ordinares, to which usual statistical methods can be applied, thus facilating computation ans analysis. The use of (log) ratios precludes the interpretation of single concentrations disregarding their relative character. A hydro-chemical data set is used to illustrate the point
