The state of art of the biomarker approach in ecotoxicology is reviewed with particular reference to its use in the assessment of exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals in wildlife. The following topics are discussed: the theoretical basis of the biomarker approach; the advantages of biomarker strategies in biomonitoring programs; application of biomarker strategies in an ecotoxicological context; the main biomarker techniques; interpretation of the results; and the development and validation of nondestructive biomarkers.

The establishment, operation and theoretical basis of a multi-disciplinary, Tier 3, risk assessment team based in a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) is described. The work is based on the premise that a multi-disciplinary team, with a degree of statutory independence, assessing forensic issues within a systemic and developmental context, offers a useful contribution to the comprehensive assessment of risk and provides a valuable and valued service to statutory agencies and the courts. The team is used by Social Services Departments and the courts as an independent assessor of the risk parents and potential carers pose to children. An evaluation of 39 referrals, carried out over the last 3 years of operation of the parenting risk assessment team, is given.

Environmental quality assessment and modelling in high-risk industrial sites in Latvia The industrial risk situation during the past 20 years in 50 high-risk industrial sites in Latvia was investigated. Overall, the study results show that the level of industrial risk within Latvia's high-risk companies has fallen significantly. Modernisation of equipment and automation of process management were deemed to be the most effective risk reduction measures. A great deal of experience has accumulated in Latvia in the field of quantitative risk assessment. However, the comparability of the results of the work carried out is limited, because different input data and assumptions have been utilised in the calculations by various specialists. Computer modelling of the harmful impact zones resulting from accidents should be consolidated in risk assessments so that as far as possible the harmful effects on human health and the environment arising from accidents can be assessed more comprehensively and diversely. There is a need to develop common methods for probabilistic risk assessment. The study also shows that, in contrast to many European countries, acceptable risk norms are yet to be ratified in Latvia which is hindering the formulation and implementation of targeted risk reduction policy by executive governmental institutions.

Aim at gob in loess gully region is the only ways of West—East oil and gas pipeline, the risk assessment on oil and gas pipeline through gob is solve operation of pipelines, and prevent the occurrence of major disasters and urgently need to study and solve major problems. It combines with integral method to further risk assessment on oil and gas pipelines across god based on the results mining subsidence hazard study in loess gully region. The method has proved that has some guidance on risk assessment of oil and gas pipelines through the loess gully region, and it is for further study on overlying gob pipeline movement and deformation to lay the theoretical basis.
