<abstract>Probabilistic methods are being developed to quantitatively describe both variability and uncertainty. In this article the approach for using mixture  distributions and bootstrap simulation is illustrated with a case study  of an empirical data set. This article focuses on  mixture long-normal distributions with two components since a log- normal distribution describes random variability resulting from multiplicative processes and often well describes the  concentration of a chemical in the environment</abstract>
