Description
Summary:We greatly appreciate the kind and continuous support provided by all the Apraitz WWTP operators before and during fieldwork. We also thank many volunteers from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) and the University Rey Juan Carlos for their assistance with fieldwork and laboratory analyses. This research was part of the 603629-ENV-2013-6.2.1 (GLOBAQUA) project funded by the European Community's Seventh Framework Programme. We also acknowledge the financial support from the Basque Government (Consolidated Research Group: Stream Ecology 7-CA-18/10). Ioar de Guzmán was supported by a pre-doctoral fellowship from the Basque Government.
