Consider the three types of measure and read what that measure
does.
Measures of effects
|
...quantify change in an attribute of an assessment
endpoint (or its surrogate) in response to a stressor. |
| Measures of exposure |
...quantify stressor existence and movement in
the environment, and the stressor's contact with the assessment
endpoint. |
| Measures of ecosystem and receptor characteristics |
...describe characteristics that influence the
behavior and location of entities selected as assessment endpoints,
describe life-history characteristic of those entities, or describes
the distribution of a stressor. |
