Lawson Division of Biostatistics & Epidemiology Medical University of South Carolina Barry D. Nussbaum Chief Statistician U.S. Environmental Protection Agency The Springer series Environmental and Ecological Statistics is devoted to the cross-disciplinary subject area of environmental and ecological statistics discussing important topics and themes in statistical ecology, environmental statistics, and relevant risk analysis. Emphasis is focused on applied mathematical statistics, statistical methodology, data interpretation and improvement for future use, with a view to advance statistics for environment, ecology, and environmental health, and to advance environmental theory and practice using valid statistics. Each volume in the Environmental and Ecological Statistics series is based on the appropriateness of the statistical methodology to the particular environmental and ecological problem area, within the context of contemporary environmental issues and the associated statistical tools, concepts, and methods.
