为了本章的目的，我们将生物监测定义为对生命系统性能的分析，其结构是为决策提供必要的信息。尽管某种形式的生物监测已经使用了数百年，如果不是数千年的话(Herricks和Schaeffer，1984)，但设计和使用生物监测项目的统一方法是最近的发展。本章讨论生物监测程序，强调协调数据收集和促进信息检索的程序设计。我们强调生物监测在环境管理和监管方面的作用。我们建议，控制理论和决策科学都可以用来改进生物监测程序，以优化环境科学、管理和法规中数据的使用。
For the purposes of this chapter we define biomonitoring as the analysis of the performance of living systems structured to provide essential information for decision making. Although some form of biomonitoring has been used for hundreds, if not thousands of years (Herricks and Schaeffer 1984), a cohesive approach to the design and use of biomonitoring programs is a recent development. This chapter discusses biomonitoring programs, emphasizing program designs that coordinate data collection and facilitate information retrieval. We highlight the role of biomonitoring in the context of environmental management and regulation. We suggest that both control theory and decision science can be used to refine biomonitoring programs to optimize the use of data in the environmental sciences, management, and regulation.
