2007 Release of Causal Analysis/Diagnosis Decision Information System (CADDIS)

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces the availability of the EPA Web site, "Causal Analysis/Diagnosis Decision Information System (CADDIS)"--2007. EPA's National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) in the Office of Research and Development (ORD) led the development of the CADDIS Web site in response to strong demand within the EPA (e.g., the Office of Water) and from stakeholders and citizens across the United States seeking a defensible method for determining causes of ecological impairment. CADDIS guides users through EPA's Stressor Identification process, with interactive tools and methods, worksheets, and examples to help scientists and engineers evaluate causes of biological impairment observed in aquatic systems such as streams, lakes, and estuaries. Access: The CADDIS 2007 Web site can be accessed via the Internet at http://www.epa.gov/caddis/.
