Figure 2.
Heat map graph with hierarchical groupings for bioconcentration factors of PCBs in fish from Lake Chapala. In the upper part groupings with respect to the samples. On the left side groupings between analytes. FBS: bioaccumulation factor with respect to sediments. FBA: bioaccumulation factor with respect to water. The color scale represents the normalized bioaccumulation values depending on the samples; an intense red color represents a high value, while an intense blue color represents a low level. Distance measure: Euclidean. Clustering algorithm: ward. t-test/ANOVA.
