AB  - The main objective of this study was to investigate possible temporal trends of 
      persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and mercury in eggs of herring gulls (Larus 
      argentatus), black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla), common guillemots (Uria 
      aalge) and Atlantic puffins (Fratercula arctica) in Northern Norway. Eggs were 
      collected in 1983, 1993 and 2003. Egg concentrations of POPs (PCB congeners IUPAC 
      numbers: CB-28, 74, 66, 101, 99, 110, 149, 118, 153, 105, 141, 138, 187, 128,

      o,p'-DDD, p,p'-DDD, o,p'-DDT and p,p'-DDT) and mercury were quantified. 
      Generally, POP levels decreased between 1983 and 2003 in all species. No 
      significant temporal trend in mercury levels was found between 1983 and 2003.
