A guide to the issues relevant to the design, analysis, and
interpretation of toxicity studies that examine chemicals for use
in the environment Statistical Analysis of Ecotoxicity Studies
offers a guide to the design, analysis, and interpretation of a
range of experiments that are used to assess the toxicity of
chemicals. While the book highlights ecotoxicity studies, the
methods presented are applicable to the broad range of toxicity
studies. The text contains myriad datasets (from laboratory and
field research) that clearly illustrate the book's topics. The
datasets reveal the techniques, pitfalls, and precautions derived
from these studies. The text includes information on recently
developed methods for the analysis of severity scores and other
ordered responses, as well as extensive power studies of competing
tests and computer simulation studies of regression models that
offer an understanding of the sensitivity (or lack thereof) of
various methods and the quality of parameter estimates from
regression models. The authors also discuss the regulatory process
indicating how test guidelines are developed and review the
statistical methodology in current or pending OECD and USEPA
ecotoxicity guidelines. This important guide: Offers the
information needed for the design and analysis to a wide array of
ecotoxicity experiments and to the development of international
test guidelines used to assess the toxicity of chemicals Contains a
thorough examination of the statistical issues that arise in
toxicity studies, especially ecotoxicity Includes an introduction
to toxicity experiments and statistical analysis basics Includes
programs in R and excel Covers the analysis of continuous and
Quantal data, analysis of data as well as Regulatory Issues
Presents additional topics (Mesocosm and Microplate experiments,
mixtures of chemicals, benchmark dose models, and limit tests) as
well as software Written for directors, scientists, regulators, and
technicians, Statistical Analysis of Ecotoxicity Studies provides a
sound understanding of the technical and practical issues in
designing, analyzing, and interpreting toxicity studies to support
or challenge chemicals for use in the environment.
