Environmental Risk Assessment aims to systematically identify, analyze, and evaluate potential environmental hazards and their associated risks to human health and the environment.

Risk Identification is the initial step in Environmental Risk Assessment, where potential environmental hazards and their sources are identified and characterized.

Risk Analysis involves estimating the likelihood and magnitude of potential environmental impacts resulting from identified hazards, using various methods such as qualitative or quantitative risk assessment techniques.

Risk Evaluation involves comparing estimated risks with predetermined acceptable risk criteria or standards to determine their significance and prioritize them for further action.

Risk Management aims to develop and implement strategies to eliminate or reduce identified environmental risks to acceptable levels, considering technical, economic, and social factors.

Risk Matrix is a qualitative risk assessment method that involves assigning values for likelihood and consequence to create a risk score, which is then used to prioritize risks.

A Preliminary Site Assessment (PSA) is conducted to gather information about a site's history, current uses, and potential environmental hazards, aiding in the identification of potential risks.

Risk Analysis involves estimating the probability of an event occurring, considering various factors such as the frequency and severity of past events, expert judgment, and historical data.

Monte Carlo Simulation is a quantitative risk assessment method that uses random sampling to generate multiple possible outcomes and estimate the probability of different scenarios.

Human Health Risk Assessment aims to evaluate the potential health risks posed by environmental hazards, considering exposure pathways, toxicity data, and individual susceptibility.

An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) typically involves identifying potential environmental impacts, evaluating their significance, developing mitigation measures, and conducting public consultation and participation.

Hazard Identification involves identifying potential sources of environmental hazards, such as industrial facilities, waste disposal sites, or natural hazards, that may pose risks to human health or the environment.

Fault Tree Analysis is a quantitative risk assessment method that uses a logical diagram to analyze the causes and consequences of potential failures or events, aiding in risk estimation.

Ecological Risk Assessment aims to evaluate the potential adverse effects of environmental hazards on ecosystems, including impacts on biodiversity, habitat quality, and ecosystem services.

Risk Evaluation involves comparing estimated risks with acceptable risk criteria or standards to determine their significance and prioritize them for further action.
