  The growth rate, longevity, sex ratio and fertility of Anisakis simplex in minke whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata), porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) and long-finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas) was studied on basis of material from the North-Atlantic. A total of 8135 mature A. simplex were collected from 24 minke whales, 11 porpoises and 8 pilot whales. For both males and females the prevalence was 100% for all three species of whale, with a mean intensity of 1727, 262 and 139 respectively. The mean body length of adult females was 126 mm in minke whales, 71 mm in the porpoises and 73 mm in pilot whales; and for males the averages were respectively 106 mm, 57 mm and 68 mm. Eggs from the uteri of 32 females of length 87 - 176 mm collected in minke whale stomachs, were counted in a Fuchs-Rosenthal chamber. Total egg production was measured in 14 females cultivated at sea. The female growth period was estimated to be 30-60 days, and apparently all eggs were shed during the last week of life. A female of size 150 mm produces approximately 1.5 million eggs. In the cultivation experiment about 85 % of the total egg production was shed during the first three days after spawning started.

  The accumulation of PCB, DDT, chlordanes, hexachlorocyclohexanes, hexachlorobenzene and mirex was studied in a marine food chain consisting of bullrout, cod, herring gull and harbor seals. Furthermore hepatic biotransformation enzyme activities (ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD), penoxyresorufin-O-depentylase (PROD) and glutathion S-transferase (GST)) were measured in all species. High correlations between EROD and PROD activities were found in all species, suggesting a single common catalyst CYP1A. GST activities were dependent on biological factors: age in harbor seals and sex in bullrouts.

  The accumulation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), DDTs, chlordanes, hexachlorocyclohexanes, hexachlorobenzene and mirex was investigated in a marine food web from south eastern Norway. The food web consisted of the polychaete Nereis diversicolor, lesser sandeel (Ammodytes tobianus), three species of gobies (Gobiusculus, Pomatoschistus, Gobius), bullrout (Myoxocephalus scorpius), cod (Gadus morhua), herring gull (Larus argentatus) and harbor seal (Phoca vitulina). The results show that interspecies differences in organochlorine (OC) compositional patterns in the food web depend on several factors specific to both the chemicals and the organisms.

  The spiny dogfish in the Oslofjord has been more than halved since the 1970s. The sharks were sampled monthly off Hvaler Islands throughout 1987 and 1997 in gill nets and by long line at depth ranging from 50 to 460 meters. The same fisherman, fishing grounds and fishing gear were used in both sampling years. Growth was linear between the ages of 11 and 38 years, with an annual increment of 0.7 cm per year. On average,the fish in 1987 were 2 cm longer than fish in 1997 at the same age (P < 0.02). However, fish between 80 and 110 cm were about 500g heavier in 1997 (P < 0.01). Age at 50% maturity was 17 years in both 1987 and and 1997. The number of free-living embryos varied between 2 and 15. On average, the females in 1987 carried 1.2 more free-living embryos. The duration of pregnancy varied between 18 and 24 months. Thus it seems that the variation in Oslofjord is larger than observed in other areas, i.e. 22 - 24 months.

  Ulke er hyppig tungt infisert med nematoden P.decipiens og danner en viktig mellomvei for infeksjon i torsk. Allikevel steg ikke infeksjongraden i ulke da selbestanden i Koster tredoblet seg etter selpesten. Dette skyldes sannsynligvis en kombinasjon av to faktorer: (1) mye torsk blir spist av steinkobbene, og (2) gruntvannsområdene er så små i geografisk utstrekning at få sel kan dekke over mesteparten av området de jevnlig patruljerer. Konsekvensen er at det ikke nytter å desimere en selbestand for å få bukt med kveisproblemet.

  Konsentrasjonen av kvikksølv, kadmium og bly i leveren ble målt i brosme fra en dyp fjord i Vestlandet (Nordfjord) og ute i fritt havområde. Konsentrasjonene var signifikant høyere i fjordfisken selv om der ikke finnes noen lokal kontamineringskilde i Nordfjord. Dette indikerer at fjorder akkumulerer atmosfæriske kontaminanter på en effektiv måte, og det er således viktig å velge innsamlingsområde på en representativ måte når man skal undersøke spredningen av tungmetaller langt fra punktkilden.

  Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs; 17 congeners), Sigma DDT (p,p'-DDT, p,p'-DDD, p,p'-DDE and o,p'-DDD), chlordanes (oxychlordane and trans-nonachlor), hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs; alpha-, beta- and gamma-isomers) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) have been determined in a local marine food chain including the lesser sandeel (Ammodytes marinus), cod (Gadus morhua), harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) and grey seal (Halichoerus grypus), caught in Jarfjord, Northern Norway. The concentrations of the pollutants generally increased with trophic level. The highest biomagnification factor (36.9) was found for Sigma DDT from sandeel to harbour seal. The compositional patterns of accumulated organochlorines also differed between the species. The proportions of highly chlorinated biphenyls, p,p'-DDE and oxychlordane increased with higher trophic level, while the proportions of mono-ortho substituted and meta-para unsubstituted PCB congeners, together with DDD decreased from fish to seal. The data suggest that the bioaccumulation mechanisms at lower trophic levels (fish) depend primarily on physicochemical factors, such as the water solubility and lipophilicity of the pollutants. At higher trophic levels (seals), the bioaccumulation mechanisms are primarily affected by biochemical factors, such as the metabolic capacity of the organisms. Prey preference may also influence the patterns of accumulated pollutants in the different species. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

  Exposure to oil components in the water column in ERA Acute can be modelled using either of two alternative options in the oil spill model OSCAR. While the option based on the Critical Body Residue (CBR) takes changing oil properties/toxicities and exposure time into account and therefore represents a scientifically more valid approach, an alternative and more conservative option based on the modelled maximum total hydrocarbon (THC) concentrations over the whole water column is also described. A global fish restitution model has been developed based on historical recruitment data, and demonstrating strong links between the climatic regime and natural fluctuations of fish stocks. Restitution modelling shows that as long as impact is assessed on the reproductive unit (spawning stock), even a major oil spill will not have a measurable effect on fish stocks. Higher risk may apply if fish larvae are considered representing a valuable resource in itself, e.g. as a planktonic food source of predating organisms, but this is not within the scope of this project.

  Comprising more than 70 % of the earth's surface, the world oceans are an enormous recipient of environmental contaminants, such as organochlorines (OCs). Persistence and high lipid solubility render OCs subject to bioaccumulation and biomagnification. The highest concentrations of these compounds are, therefore, found in top predators such as sea birds and marine mammals. In the present study, we investigate the bioaccumulation of selected OC compounds (PCBs DDTs, chlordanes, HCHs, and HCB) in a marine food web consisting of harbour seal (Phoca vitulina), herring gull (Larus argentatus), cod (Gadus morhua), bull rout (Myoxocephalus scorpius), sandeel (Ammodytes tobianus), various gobys (Gobiidae), and the polycheat Nereis diversicolor. The trophic positions of the organisms are determined by the use of stable N- and C-isotopes. Activities of selected hepatic xenobiotic metabolising enzymes (CYP1A CYP2B, GST and UDP-GT) are also measured. The fate of isotope-labeled lindane and PCB, orally administered to cod and bull rout, is investigated by the use of whole body autoradiography.
