AN OVERVIEW OF THE LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT METHOD 37

The aspect of deepening is not shown in Figure 2.4. It mainly refers to the
"Modeling" phase of LCSA. Deepening can be done in each box of the mod-
eling phase. Consequential modeling is an example of deepening: it can be
relevant and applied at each of the three levels of analysis and for each type of
indicator. For a further discussion of the concept of deepening, we refer to [82].
