Tittel: Screening of new contaminants in samples from the Norwegian Arctic

The aim of the present study was to obtain a snapshot of the occurrence of potentially hazardous substances in the marine environment in regions far from local sources. The samples included in the present study were all collected around Svalbard (including Bjørnøya) on different cruises performed as parts of other projects. Most of the samples are from the marine environment (seawater, sediment, fish and seabirds), but one freshwater fish species (Arctic char ¿ Salvelinus alpinus) from an Arctic lake with high levels of POPs, Lake Ellasjøen on Bjørnøya, has been included in the study.
