Assessment of Environmental Impacts

During the course of this project, I collected and reviewed the data then available from studies of impacts resulting from environmental changes on habitat for fish and wildlife over a selected period of time as well as provided the draft report, which I and others edited to complete details needed for the final version.

The work focused on commonly used methods of assessment and prediction, how the methods have been used, and evaluation of their effectiveness with reference to adequate protection of fish and wildlife resources.

The integration of the findings is published as:
