註釋

This report has these main objectives: to provide an overview and critical analysis of such concepts as ecosystem health, cumulative effects assessment, and ecological risk assessment; to define the ecosystem approach used by the Northern River Basins Study science program; to provide a pragmatic approach to the choice of ecological indicators that are ecologically and socially relevant and which can be used effectively in basin management decision-making; and to provide a northern basins framework approach that could be used to develop an integrated monitoring and assessment program that is ecosystem-based. Each of these objectives is addressed in a separate section of the report. The concluding section lists principles related to integrated ecosystem monitoring and uses these principles to make recommendations regarding implementation of an ecosystem approach to environmental monitoring in northern Alberta.
