"How do we manage interdisciplinary cooperation in order to maintain a sustainable environment? This book presents the collected papers from a Pellston Workshop sponsored by SETAC and the Ecological Society of America (ESA). Building consensus positions surrounding the science and regulatory practice of sustainable environmental management, participants represented government, industry, and academia. These proceedings reflect the current state of the art and focus on an assessment of • transboundary problems • landscape and watershed management • product stewardship • biodiversity protection and restoration • urban environmental management • environmental restoration"

<p>The workshop proceedings presented here were sponsored by the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry with the intention of evaluating how ecological risk assessment concepts can be used to reformulate water-quality criteria and methods. Workgroups were tasked with developing a conceptual model, identifying problems and research needs, and proposing solutions. They addressed such issues as the level of exposure concentration needed to assess effects, the responses of aquatic populations to chemical exposures, and methodologies of risk characterization.

<p>Ten papers suggest how to improve national regulations to require testing the impact on wild birds before pesticides and other chemicals are authorized for use. They offer a framework for testing and assessing the effects, case studies on assessment, and feedback to other groups that are responsible for revising avian test guidelines of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The conclusion makes 15 specific recommendations. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)</p>

Avian Effects Assessment: A Framework for Contaminants Studies: The Report of a Setac Workshop on 'Harmonised Approaches to Avian Effects assessment (Setac (Society).)

Hart, Andy

SETAC Workshop on Harmonised Approaches to Avian Effects Assessment' (1999 : Woudschoten, Netherlands)

Four studies from a June 2000 toxicology workshop in Snowbird, Utah, begin the effort to quantify the intuition that there is a strong connection between the well-being of natural ecosystems and human health. Social and natural scientists from academia, government, and industry participated. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
