Biotic indices are numerical values used to assess the quality of ecosystems based on the presence and abundance of specific organisms. They provide insights into the health of marine environments by evaluating biological communities and their responses to environmental changes. Indices like AMBI (Azti's Marine Biotic Index) and BENTIX (Benthic Index) focus on different groups of organisms, helping researchers track marine life and evaluate habitat conditions.
congrats on reading the definition of Biotic Indices (AMBI, BENTIX). now let's actually learn it.
