Kurzbeschreibung
Based on the EPA Office of Water's most recent epidemiological studies being conducted at the Great Lakes beaches, Statistical Framework for Recreational Water Quality Criteria and Monitoring provides a framework in the context of these studies, providing details on traditional and novel sampling designs. Edited by one of the key workers at the EPA, the book focuses on practical statistical methods for monitoring water quality and also covers risk characterization, empirical modeling and sensitivity analysis and measures of robustness.
