Description:
Exposure scenarios are used to evaluate the degree of environmental contact experienced by people with different patterns of lifestyle activities. Disproportionately high exposures could be incurred by people with traditional subsistence lifestyles because of their more intensive contact with natural resources. There are several developed tribal exposure scenarios that reflect tribal-specific traditional lifeways. The diets are unique to each tribe and its local ecology, natural foods, and traditional practices.
