Environmental Science & Technology, 1986
Hazard assessment involves comparisons of the magnitude and duration of chemical concentrations in various segments of the environment-which result from the manufacture, transportation, use, and disposal of a compound-with concentrations in food, water, air, and soil at levels that are toxic to the environment.

Food Additives and Contaminants, 1993
Exposure to lead (Pb) continues to be a source of concern for the US Food and Drug Administration and other United States federal regulatory agencies. Blood lead levels as low as 10 micrograms/dl have been associated with impaired neurobehavioural and cognitive development and electrophysiological deficits in children and reduced gestational age and ...

Toxicology: Assessing the Hazard
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1978Some of the fundamentals of toxicology that are used by the toxicologist in assessing the toxic properties of compounds have been discussed. It is easy to see that a large amount of keen professional judgment must enter into the toxicologist's decisions.

Quantitative Seismic Hazard Assessment
2007We analyze the ingredients required for deterministic wave propagation simulation in order to estimate more accurately ground motion in terms of amplitude, frequency content and duration. Building maps of expected ground motion before a catastrophic event for various scenarios may help design ways to mitigate impacts of ground vibrations as well as ...

Assessment of immobility hazards
Home Care Provider, 1998As home health care nurses, we see many patients who are bedridden or immobilized. Impaired physical mobility (immobility) is defined by the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association as a state in which the individual experiences or is at risk for experiencing limitation of physical movement.

Disasters occur when physical and social systems interact with natural or technological hazards. The characteristics of the hazard itself are typically the most significant determinants of damage and loss. For example, in our work in Galveston, the exposure to storm surge (proximity to the bay side of the island) was the most important predictor of ...
