Ecosystem bioaccumulation potential

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-008929

Ecosystem bioaccumulation potential evaluates the tendency for a substance to accumulate in the tissue all aquatic organisms, not just human food chain organisms (as in bioaccumulation potential), and forms one component of the ecosystem toxicity/persistence/bioaccumulation and ecosystem toxicity/mobility/persistence/bioaccumulation factors within the environmental threat - waste characteristics factor category. HRS Table 4 - 15 and sections 4.1.3.2.1.3 and 4.1.4.2.1.3 provide the data hierarchy to follow when evaluating bioaccumulation potential.
