The authors discuss experience concerning use of risk evaluation methods. Those methods are designed to analyze and evaluate contribution made by air pollution sources into ecologically related risk for population living in territories of ecological hazard (exemplified by Angarsk city). Findings are that use of EPA methods combined with epidemiological risk evaluation technology appears the most effective. This combined approach helps to solve the following problems: 1) evaluation of territory's ecological hazard induced by environmental pollution; 2) estimate of quantitative dependencies of this hazard and health risk from actual composition and source of pollution; 3) disclosure of contribution made by main health risk sources.
作者讨论了风险评估方法的使用经验。这些方法旨在分析和评估空气污染源对生活在生态危险区域(以安加尔斯克市为例)的人群生态相关风险的贡献。研究结果表明,将美国环境保护局(EPA)的方法与流行病学风险评估技术相结合似乎是最有效的。这种综合方法有助于解决以下问题:1)评估环境污染引起的区域生态危害;2)根据污染的实际成分和来源,估计这种危害与健康风险之间的定量关系;3)揭示主要健康风险源的贡献。
