About this title

Synopsis

Methods of Environmental Impact Assessment is a practical up-to-date explanation and guide to how EIAs are, and should be, carried out for specific environmental components (e.g., air, water, ecological systems, socio-economic systems). For each component, it includes a discussion of relevant standards, how baseline surveys are conducted, how impact predictions are made, what mitigation measures can be used, how the effectiveness of such measures should be monitored, and the limitations of the methods.
