biotic index
biotic index Scheme for grading river quality according to the diversity and abundance of the river fauna present, with particular reference to ‘key species’ with known pollution tolerances. The scale ranges from 10 (clean water with diverse fauna) to 0 (grossly polluted water with no fauna or with only a few anaerobic organisms).
