Comparing ecotoxicological and physicochemical indicators of municipal wastewater effluent and river water quality in a Baltic Sea catchment in Poland

While legal regulations require treated wastewater to be tested based only on its physicochemical parameters, surface water assessment also has to include biological indicators. However, neither approach provides a complete picture of water quality due to lack of ecotoxicological information. Theref...
