This volume explores the interfaces between the different areas of application of environmental statistics and considers the future applications of methods arising from environmental statistics. Some contributions deal specifically with specialized statistical techniques developed for analyzing environmental data, along with mathematical models designed to integrate large amounts of environmental data into a coherent picture of particular environmental systems. Other contributions examine the problems involved in co-ordinating data collection over large geographical areas and over many dimensions of measurement relevant to environmental issues. Finally, a number of the contributions analyze the problems of formulating specific environmental policies given the nature of the information that has been made available by environmental statistical methods.
