The Ecosystems Research Center (ERC) was established at Cornell U ni versity in October 1980 by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with the goals of: 1. Identifying fundamental principles and concepts of ecosystems sci ence and the determination of their importance in understanding and pre dicting the responses of ecosystems to stress, the description of the basic mechanisms that operate within ecosystems, and an examination of the stability of ecosystem structure and function in the face of stress. 2. Testing the applicability of those theoretical concepts to problems of concern to the EPA through a consideration of retrospective and other case studies. In line with these goals, the Hudson River ecosystem provided the basis for the first major retrospective study undertaken by the ERC. The goal of the project was to develop recommendations concerning how ecosystem monitoring can and should be carried out in support of EPA's regulatory responsibilities. Our hope was and is that the experience gained from this study will be broadly applicable to a range of manage ment problems involving estuarine ecosystems, and will lead to more effective regulation.

Scientists spent more than 15 years studying the physical and chemical characteristics and biological productivity of the estuary and documenting the abundance, distribution, and life histories of the major fish species. New sampling equipment and analytical methods were developed. Sophisticated models of the striped bass and other importanat Hudson River fish populations were developed. Most of the results of these studies are buried in contractor reports, magnetic tape libraries, and hearings transcripts. Our objective in producing this monograph is to make this information accessible to the scientific community. Our intent is to 1) summarize the scientific issues and approaches; 2) Present the significant results of the Hudson River biological studies; 3) describe the role of the studies in the decision-making process; 4) evaluate the successes and failures of the studies, and 5) present recommendations for future estuarine impact assessments.
