Environmental dose-response functions of silk and paper exposed in museums.
This paper reports 1 year of data of the environments and changes in the molecular weight of silk and the degree of polymerization of sensitive paper measured externally and indoors in 10 European museums, and the dose-response functions that were obtained by statistical analysis of this data. The measurements were performed in the EU FP5 project Master (EVK-CT-2002-00093). The work provides documentation of deterioration of silk by NO2 and O3, and alternatively in combination with UV radiation. The indoor deterioration of the silk was only observed in one location with high UV radiation. The indoor deterioration of sensitive paper correlated with the UV radiation, the concentrations of NO2 and O3, and in addition with an SO2 concentration of 4 µgm−3 and a formic acid concentration of 50 µgm−3 in two different locations. If the observed dose-response effects are linear to lower doses and longer exposure times, then the lifetime to intolerable deterioration of the paper and silk would be 6–7 times longer overall in the enclosures than in the galleries.

Environmental contaminants in freshwater food webs, 2021
This report presents monitoring data from freshwater food webs and abiotic samples from Lake Mjøsa and Femunden within the
Milfersk programme. Studies and monitoring of legacy and emerging contaminants have been carried out through this programme
for several years, focusing on the pelagic food web. This is the first report in the monitoring program focusing on a benthic food
chain (Chironomids, ruffe, roach and perch) in addition to inputs to Lake Mjøsa by analysis of lake sediments, surface waters,
stormwater, effluent and sludge from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). The analytical programme includes the determination
of a total of ̴ 260 single components.

Environmental Contaminants in an Urban Fjord, 2022
This report presents data from the second year of a new 5-year period of the Urban Fjord programme. The programme started in 2013 and has since been altered/advanced. In 2022 the programme covers sampling and analyses of sediment, polychaetes, krill, shrimps, blue mussels, herring, cod, eider, and herring gull from the Inner Oslofjord. In addition, samples of Harbour seals from the Outer Oslofjord are analysed. A total of ~300 single compounds/isomers were analysed, and frequent detection was found of certain PFAS compounds (such as PFOS) in most matrices, certain QACs in sediment, MCCPs in most matrices (also SCCPs in birds and seals, as well as LCCPs in seals), D5 (siloxane) in all matrices, certain PBDEs (such as BDE 100) in most matrices, PCBs in all matrices, BCPS (phenolic) in seals and certain metals in all matrices. Biomagnification was observed for 28 PCB congeners and 6 PBDEs (lipid wt. basis). Furthermore, biomagnification was observed for 5 PFAS compounds, as well as for the metals As, Ag and Hg (wet wt. basis).

Environmental Contaminants in an Urban Fjord, 2020
This programme, “Environmental Contaminants in an Urban Fjord” has covered sampling and analyses of sediment and organisms in a marine food web of the Inner Oslofjord, in addition to samples of blood and eggs from herring gull. The programme also included inputs of pollutants via surface water (stormwater), and effluent water and sludge from a wastewater treatment plant. The bioaccumulation potential of the contaminants in the Oslo fjord food web was evaluated. The exposure to/accumulation of the contaminants was also assessed in birds. A vast number of chemical parameters have been quantified, in addition to some biological effect parameters in cod, and the report serves as a status description of the concentrations of these chemicals in different compartments of the Inner Oslofjord marine ecosystem.

Environmental Contaminants in an Urban Fjord, 2017
This programme, “Environmental Contaminants in an Urban Fjord” has covered sampling and analyses
of sediment and organisms in a marine food web of the Inner Oslofjord, in addition to samples of
blood and eggs from herring gull and eider duck. The programme also included inputs of pollutants
via surface water (storm water), and effluent water and sludge from a sewage treatment plant. The
bioaccumulation potential of the contaminants in the Oslo fjord food web was evaluated. The
exposure to/accumulation of the contaminants was also assessed in birds. A vast number of chemical
parameters have been quantified, in addition to some biological effect parameters in cod, and the
report serves as valuable documentation of the concentrations of these chemicals in different
compartments of the Inner Oslofjord marine ecosystem.
