INTARESE Workshop report on integrated monitoring.

Abstract

The aim of this report is to address the issues of monitoring for the purposes of integrated environmental health impact assessment, to provide basis for further INTARESE project work towards the objective to give guidance on integrated monitoring. The two specific objectives are: (i) to identify the commonly experienced methodological and practical issues encountered in integrated environmental health impact assessment; and (ii) to specify activities to be performed in SP2 and WP2. 4 that would lead to providing the guidance. It includes: (1) integrated monitoring: the way forward; (2) approaches to integrate monitoring for environment and health impact assessment; (3) biomonitoring in the INTARESE concept of interated risk assessment; (4) exposure‐Dose‐Response integration: looking for a common currency; (5) case study on Pb in blood‐Europe; (6) environment and health information system in France; (7) eco‐toxicology-use for investigating interaction of stressors for integrated risk assessment –Spain; (8) environmental Exposure and Eco surveillance; (9) monitoring of organohalogens body burdens of the Czech population; (10) exposure to c‐PAHs case studies; (11) environmental data and human biomonitoring in France; (12) the concept of integrated monitoring in the Flemish Environmental Health Survey (FLESH); (13) integrated monitoring –vision or reality? (14) the impact of air pollution to human health‐Czech Experience; (15) occupatioal exposure monitoring‐approach used in FIBRETOX; and (16) INTARESE toolbox guidance.
