1 The ecotoxicological response of the living organisms in an aquatic system 2 depends on the physical, chemical and bacteriological variables, as well as the 3 interactions between them. An important challenge to scientists is to understand the 4 interaction and behaviour of factors involved in a multidimensional process such as the 5 ecotoxicological response. With this aim, multiple linear regression (MLR) and 6 principal component regression (PCR) were applied to the ecotoxicity bioassay 7
