[Ecological risk assessment and its application]
Abstract:
Ecological risk assessment, closely linked to environmental toxicology, is becoming one of the most widely expanding disciplines in environmental science. A number of frameworks for ecological risk assessment have been developed by the USEPA, Environment Canada and European Commission in recent years. This review described the common elements, the process and steps of ecological risk assessment. In addition to drawing upon the recent published literature, we have developed some examples of applications based on our collective experiences in conducting ecological risk assessments.
