Trace Element Abundance & Human Epidemiology: the Tellus Case Study

Barsby, Amy; McKinley, Jennifer; Ofterdinger, Ulrich; Young, Mike; Gavin, Anna. 2008 Trace Element Abundance & Human Epidemiology: the Tellus Case Study. [Poster] In: GeoENV 2008: 7th International Conference on Geostatistics for Environmental Applications, Southampton, UK, 8-10 Sept 2008. (Unpublished)

Abstract
The main aim of this project is to explore spatial correlations between selected trace elements in soils and surface waters, as provided by the Tellus Project and epidemiological data from the Northern Ireland Cancer Registry with regard to spatial disease patterns, in particular cancer, as this accounts for about 25% of total mortality rates in the UK. A further aim is to identify key potential exposure pathways for the selected elements.
