Description:
Case study critique: Upper Clinch case study (from Research on Methods for Integrating Ecological Economics and Ecological Risk Assessment: A Trade-off Weighted Index Approach to Integrating Economics and Ecological Risk Assessment). This critique answers the questions: 1) does this case study adequately and appropriately integrate ecological risk assessment and economics in a manner that will support decision making for environmental management and how could the method used in the study be improved; and 2) Are risk management alternatives accurately reflected?
