Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• An integrated framework combining SOM, probabilistic CWQI, and isotope tracing was developed • SOM identified five distinct spatio-temporal water quality clusters across the watershed • Probabilistic CWQI method determined each cluster’s pollution grade probability • SOM’s improvement in MixSIAR-based source apportionment method accuracy confirmed • Municipal sewage contributed 62.3–85.5% DIN across different clusters • The framework supports zone-specific pollution control strategies in coastal-plain rivers
