Abstract:
|
This presentation will provide an overview of the different methodological challenges of environmental surveys as opposed to surveys of human or establishment populations, for which most of survey expertise has been accumulated. All stages of survey and design and analysis for environmental surveys, from frame construction to measurement error, to nonresponse compensation, will be carefully reviewed. We will discuss the complexities in surveying lead in drinking water, dust, and soils; fish consumption rates used to establish water-quality standards; and hydraulically fractured wells (fracking).
