Popis:	Goal, Scope and Background The development of ecotoxicity effect indicators (EEIs) for use in life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) has only been going on for about two decades. Traditionally, no-effect indicators have been applied. In this paper we focus on the development of an effect-based (i.e. EC50-based) average indicator, the GM-troph. The indicator is estimated by use of the hazardous concentration for 50% of the covered species (HC50EC50) and is designed to work on a low substance data availability of only three acute data values, which is often required in LCIA.
