Expression de la valeur nutritive de l'eau pour le poisson. On la désigne par le symbole (B) dont la valeur est comprise entre I (eaux très pauvres) et X (eaux les plus riches). Elle s'apprécie en déterminant les facteurs positifs (faune piscicole, faune nutritive, flore, nature du fond, des berges et des rives, température, caractères chimiques, etc.) et les facteurs négatifs (curage, pollution, barrages, etc.) dont dépend la productivité finale de l'eau étudiée. Il s'agit d'une donnée quantitative à ne pas confondre avec l'indice biotique, donnée exclusivement qualitative. 4, record 2, French, - capacit%C3%A9%20biog%C3%A9nique
