Ecotoxicology

a statistical distribution of toxicity values across species, used to set a concentration expected to protect most species.

In ecotoxicology, species sensitivity distribution refers to a statistical distribution of toxicity values across species, used to set a concentration expected to protect most species. This meaning comes from Kooijman (1987) in Water Research.[1]
