Short summary
This study examines the effects of geochemistry and microbial communities on crustacean assemblages in a volcanic aquifer. It uncovers that major ions, trace elements, and microbial traits dictate the composition and functionality of crustacean assemblages, revealing variations across adjacent groundwater bodies. The study highlights the importance of approaches that integrate geochemical, microbial, and biological indicators for understanding the dynamics of groundwater ecosystems.
