In the light of recent epidemiological studies new criteria are being established for the safety of our recreational waters. In order for such criteria to be developed an established statistical framework needs to be in place. Statistical Framework for Recreational Water Quality Criteria and Monitoring offers a practical guide to the statistical methods used for assessing health effects and monitoring and modelling water quality Both traStatistics in practice.Water qualityMeasurementStatistical methodsWater qualityMeasurementStatistical methods.628.161015195Wymer Larry J946697MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910144707703321Statistical framework for recreational water quality criteria and monitoring2138902UNINA
