Description - Fundamentals of Environmental Monitoring by Taras Kazantsev

Environmental Monitoring plays a vital role in determining health and safety issues for the purpose of public health or environmental health. Environmental monitoring describes the processes and activities that need to take place to characterize and monitor the quality of the environment. Environmental monitoring is used in the preparation of environmental impact assessments, as well as in many circumstances in which human activities carry a risk of harmful effects on the natural environment. All monitoring strategies and programs have reasons and justifications which are often designed to establish the current status of an environment or to establish trends in environmental parameters. The occurrence of organized, community-based environmental monitoring has been increasing in the last decade owing to an emerging global emphasis on the importance of sustainable. Environmental monitoring is a necessary component of environmental science and policy design. In light of the increasing frequency and magnitude of environmental issues that are emerging in this era of globalization, government funding institutions are encouraged to commit to meaningful, stable, and long-term funding of monitoring programs in acknowledgement of the cost savings associated with the protection of natural resources and the improved efficiency of policy design.
