Tasks:
UiB co-ordinates the programme
of invertebrate analyses throughout EMERGE; organises
biological harmonisation sample exchanges and workshops for
invertebrate (particularly) chironomid taxonomy; and convenes
the overall programme for biological harmonisation. UiB carries
out all invertebrate analyses from Norway, Scotland, Austria,
Finland and Greenland; and those from sediment cores in
Italy. Assistance with field sampling is given in Greenland,
Bulgaria and Romania in association with national partners. UiB
participates in the fishing programmes in Greenland, Norway,
Austria, Spain and Bulgaria with particular input to the analysis
of fish food organisms for trace metals and organic
pollution.
