•Relative frequency of the use of specific structural parameters to characterize the  responses of
phytoplankton, periphyton, and macrophytes, respectively (Co=Composition of lowest practical taxon;
Ch=Chlorophyll-a; Bi=Biomass; Ab=Abundance; Si=Similarity index; Div=Diversity index; Sd=Spatial
distribution.

•Relative frequency of the use of specific structural parameters to characterize the  responses of
zooplankton, macro-invertebrates and fish, respectively (Co=Composition  at lowest practical taxon;
Bi=Biomass; Ab=Abundance; Flg=Functional feeding groups,  food choice and diet; Si=Similarity
index; Di=Diversity index; Ds=Demographic characteristics; Sd=Spatial distribution).

•Numbers of experiments in which structural aspects of different (sub)communities have  been
studied, in the three types of aquatic (model) ecosystem discerned. (Mo=Microorganisms;
Ph=Phytoplankton; Pe=Perinhyton; M=Macrophytos; Zo=Zooplankton;  Mi=Macro-invertebrates, Fi=fish)

•Taxa, volumes and endpoints appropriate for tests of circa three to six month  duration in aquatic
experimental ecosystem used in testing the fate and effects  of agricultural chemicals. Taxa
richness may be supplemented by indices or  diversity, dominance and similarity. Chl a is
chlorophyll a. From SETAC•Europe,  "Testing Procedures tor Pesticides in Freshwater Static

•Taxa, volume and endpoints appropriate for tests of circa one-month duration  in aquatic
experimental ecosystems used in testing the fate and effects of  agricultural chemical. LC50 is the
lethal concentration for a 50% reduction in  test organisms. EC50 is an effective concentration,
typically used for behavioral  endpoint
