KlappentextThe book is the only technical volume that explains how equivalency analysis methods mentioned in Annex II of the European Environmental Liability Directive should be implemented. It uses case studies to illustrate real-world application of the methods, which are based on the experience in the USA and in the European Union and have been tested in three years of training programs funded by the European Commission. Academically rigorous and technically comprehensive, the book is intended for technical experts wanting to assess damage and remediation options as well as for decision-makers wishing to commission such assessments and judge their quality. These include competent authorities, operators, financial security providers, academics, consultants and NGOs.

In the US, Josh has served as a lead scientist and technical director on many of the prominent natural resource damage assessments undertaken by federal, state and tribal authorities. He has assessed the effects of inorganic and organic pollutants on terrestrial, marine, and freshwater biological resources and habitats; surface and groundwater resources; soils; air; and human and ecological services. In the EU, Josh served as lead scientist and author of the technical toolkit for assessing and quantifying natural resource damages pursuant to the ELD and provided technical training. Josh's technical expertise is in aquatic, marine, and terrestrial ecotoxicology; ecological assessments; chemical characterization, fate, and transport; applied ecology and population biology; and uncertainty analysis.
Ece Ozdemiroglu is an environmental economist. She started her career in 1992 by founding eftec. She specializes in interpreting economic value evidence for natural capital, ecosystem services, cultural heritage, value of information and education. Her adventure with ELD started with a review of the economic concept of value, damage and benefit of remediation; use of cost benefit analysis and experience of the Natural Resource Damage Assessment experience in the US. Between 2006 and 2008, she coordinated the DG Research & Innovation funded project on the use of equivalency methods for implementing the ELD. Since then she led the writing of the EC brochure and factsheet and training materials for the ELD and organized / delivered training across the EU.
