More DescriptionA tool box of empirical and modeling methods, this book provides a foundation for designing and conducting population-level ecological risk assessments consistent with North American, European, and Japanese risk management approaches. It establishes a framework for goals, methods, and data needs for different assessment applications and for integrating population-level risk assessment into risk management decisions. The book highlights key considerations needed to improve the scientific quality and interpretation of assessments. It includes examples of population-level assessment approaches applicable to specific environmental management contexts and a modeling case study.
