Description
Introduction -- Overview of ambient-ozone standards development and benefits assessment -- Ambient ozone and related pollutants -- Contributions of relevant health studies to the estimation of reductions in premature mortality -- Economic valuation of reduction in mortality risk associated with ambient ozone -- Overall conclusions and recommendations.
The Environmental Protection Agency asked the National Research Council to establish a committee of experts to evaluate independently the contributions of epidemiologic studies to understanding the size of the ozone-mortality effect. This book details the committee's findings and posits several recommendations to address these issues
