Synopsis

Identifies and develops methods to quantitatively estimate risks and impacts of multiple stressors in ecosystems. Issues addressed include quantitative approaches to facilitate comparison of the relative impacts of multiple stressors, quantitative and qualitative approaches to assess the integrated or cumulative impact of multiple stressors on ecosystem structure and function, and methods to distinguish ecosystem changes due to natural disturbances from changes due to anthropogenic disturbances. Ferenc is a scientist at ILSI Risk Science Institute. Foran is director of the Wisconsin Aquatic Technology and Environmental Research Institute at the University of Milwaukee. Annotation c.
