Abstract:
The existing frameworks of integrated assessment on air pollution-induced health effects can be classified into four types, i.e. U.S. EPA framework, U.S. Harvard University framework, Thailand framework and China framework. As the intention of integrated environmental assessment is to provide a scientific warranty for sustainable development-related policymaking process, the authors made a systematic review for the four types of integrated assessment framework. Not only the strong points and disadvantages in each type of framework were analyzed in detail, but also suggestions for future improvement in integrated assessment were put forward.
