✦ Synopsis

An increasing concern in environmental science is the need to combine information from diverse sources that relate to a common effect. We examine problems in combining environmental information in three areas ~ environmental monitoring, measurement, and assessmentreview statistical methods and discuss opportunities for statistical research. Piegorsch and Cox (Environmetrics, 7, 309-324, 1996) examine similar questions in environmental epidemiology and toxicology.
