Use advice for data set When utilizing this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment, users must adhere to the following methodological guidelines: focus on processes directly related to the study's purpose and functional units, specifically excluding environmental loads from stages outside the factory. For accurate representation, users should account for the provided annual average data from 2011. The functional unit is defined as processing 1000kg of Litopenaeus vannamei, with survival rates of 70% during the breeding process and 20% during the reproductive stage. For modeling purposes, it is necessary to consider a functional unit of 100,000 larvae for the breeding stage and 500,000 nodal larvae for the reproductive stage. Extrapolation of this data for different years or other geographical locations should be done with caution, considering potential changes in technology, practice, and environmental conditions. |
