With contributions from a wide array of economists, ecologists, and
government agency professionals, Economics and Ecological Risk
Assessment: Applications to Watershed Management provides a
multidisciplinary approach to environmental decision-making at a
watershed level. It introduces the fields of ecological risk
assessment (ERA) and economic analysis and discusses their
application to the practice of watershed management. The book
presents a general framework for the integration of ERA and
economic analysis to improve environmental management in a
diversity of watersheds. Focusing on real-world decisions, this
book describes studies conducted in six U.S. watersheds where both
ecological and economic analyses were needed. Decision contexts for
these studies include negotiations to satisfy Endangered Species
Act requirements, natural resource damage assessment, Clean Water
Act permitting, and community development planning. The success of
ecological-economic integration in each study, and the contribution
to decision making, is critically examined.
