Ciliate Communities Respond via Their Traits to a Wastewater Treatment Plant With a Combined UASB–Activated Sludge System

Assessing functional diversity of communities is an efficient method to link community composition to ecosystem quality. Still, studies using functional traits of microeukaryote ciliate communities in biological wastewater treatment plants are lacking. The present work explores the functional divers...
