Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. There is a pressing need for developing and testing a general set of theories in order to provide a confident basis for prediction of multiple stressor effects. Confident prediction is central to confident decision making in water pollution control. Consequently, WERF commissioned this study, which has as its goal to provide a study design based on good science that helps establish a general, conceptual approach to multiple stressors. The objectives addressed in this report are: (1) review and critique the existing body of knowledge for multiple stressors; (2) develop a searchable, annotated bibliography of multiple stressor research; and, (3) identify gaps in the body of knowledge. A rigorous, theoretical basis for the prediction of multiple stressor effects could not be developed from the literature on experimental studies of multiple stressor effects in aquatic ecosystems. Despite the wealth of observational data, the existence of several useful tools for interpretation of cause/effect relationships (including formal Stressor Identification methods), and the studies reviewed in this report, there are no tools that allow a confident, a priori, prediction of ecosystem response to multiple stressors. The current literature provides, at best, a series of site-specific glimpses of the response of ecological communities and ecosystems to multiple stressors. There is seldom, if ever, any reference to a more generalized model of multiple stressor effects apart from the discussion of the expectations regarding additivity versus synergism. Many articles that purport to be multiple stressor studies do not go beyond an inventory of the various stresses and upsets affecting the ecosystem, without attempting to assess the interactions among them. The objectives addressed in this report are: review and critique the body of knowledge for multiple stressors; develop a searchable, annotated bibliography of multiple stressor research; and, identify gaps in the body of knowledge.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. There is a pressing need for developing and testing a general set of theories in order to provide a confident basis for prediction of multiple stressor effects. Confident prediction is central to confident decision making in water pollution control. Consequently, WERF commissioned this study which has as its goal to provide a study design based on good science that helps establish a general, conceptual approach to multiple stressors. The objectives of the study are to develop a flexible and scientifically defensible conceptual model of the environmental effects of multiple stressors on river and stream ecosystems; develop a study design to test the conceptual model of multiple stressor effects; and, document the process used to arrive at the conceptual model. The multiple stressor conceptual model includes two main components: (1) a diagram that portrays the main features of the study team's understanding of how multiple stressors would interact and the nature of the effects; and (2) a series of three testable risk hypotheses. These two components follow the guidance provided by the U.S. EPA for ecological risk assessment. The proposed conceptual model encompasses the following key assumptions: interactions between the stressor and the ecosystem are dependant upon the existing baseline conditions; for each stressor/baseline combination there will theoretically be a functional and a structural response; effects on habitat are caused by structural or functional responses to stressors; and effects on habitat can cause structural or functional responses. A model for ecosystem response, this book combines the subsidy/toxicant dichotomy into a single relationship, addresses a long-standing controversy about whether functional or structural changes are expected first for any given situation, and leads to interesting hypotheses.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - There is a pressing need for developing and testing a general set of theories in order to provide a confident basis for prediction of multiple stressor effects. Confident prediction is central to confident decision making in water pollution control. Consequently, WERF commissioned this study which has as its goal to provide a study design based on good science that helps establish a general, conceptual approach to multiple stressors. The objectives of the study are to develop a flexible and scientifically defensible conceptual model of the environmental effects of multiple stressors on river and stream ecosystems; develop a study design to test the conceptual model of multiple stressor effects; and, document the process used to arrive at the conceptual model. The multiple stressor conceptual model includes two main components: (1) a diagram that portrays the main features of the study team's understanding of how multiple stressors would interact and the nature of the effects; and (2) a series of three testable risk hypotheses. These two components follow the guidance provided by the U.S. EPA for ecological risk assessment. The proposed conceptual model encompasses the following key assumptions: ¿ interactions between the stressor and the ecosystem are dependant upon the existing baseline conditions; ¿ for each stressor/baseline combination there will theoretically be a functional and a structural response; ¿ effects on habitat are caused by structural or functional responses to stressors; and ¿ effects on habitat can cause structural or functional responses. Risk hypotheses were required to complete the conceptual understanding of multiple stressor effects. The study team developed an overall theory of ecosystem response to multiple stressors based upon the central notion that almost every stressor is potentially either a subsidy (producing stimulatory effects) or a toxicant (producing inhibitory effects) in an ecosystem, depending upon its concentration. Furthermore, the study team proposes that the subsidy/toxicant response curves for different kinds of stressors are all of the same general shape; the difference lying where on the curve the new input places the ecosystem in question. This is a new model for ecosystem response (although grounded in earlier theories). It combines the subsidy/toxicant dichotomy into a single relationship, addresses a long-standing controversy about whether functional or structural changes are expected first for any given situation, and leads to interesting new hypotheses. Most importantly, this model is testable and can be used to predict ecosystem responses to multiple stressors of different kinds in different baseline conditions. …
