The Parameters Limiting the Effectiveness of Cumulative Effects Assessment as a Component of Strategic Environmental Assessment in Scotland
The environmental reports of 12 Scottish Strategic Environmental Assessments have been subject to critical analysis in order to assess the extent to which they include Cumulative Effects Assessment (CEA) as a required component under the SEA directive. The anticipated benefits of assessing Cumulative Effects in a strategic setting are wide-ranging and well researched, yet there appears little documented evidence of this in the Scottish context. The level of Cumulative Effects inclusion in the reports studied was investigated, along with the parameters that appear to limit the success of the lauded relationship between these environmental assessment tools. An 8 criteria review-based methodolo...
Cumulative Environmental Effects
Cumulative effects of multiple environmental perturbations of natural and social systems were identified as needing study because of a lack of a clear and unambiguous definition of cumulative effects assessment, despite the widespread recognition of its importance. There is increasing concern that neither scientists nor institutions work at the temporal and spatial scales needed for the assessment of cumulative effects. The workshop explored these issues, identified current scientific and management techniques of dealing with cumulative effects, and to recommended research and management priorities for improving the management of cumulative effects.

Impact Assessment
Offers solutions and best practices to respond to recurrent problems and contemporary challenges in the field Since the publication of the first edition of Environmental Impact Assessment in 2003, both the practice and theory of impact assessment have changed substantially. Not only has the field been subject to a great deal of new regulations and guidelines, it has also evolved tremendously, with a greater emphasis on strategic environmental, sustainability, and human health impact assessments. Moreover, there is a greater call for impact assessments from a global perspective. This Second Edition, now titled Impact Assessment to reflect its broader scope and the breadth of these many change...
