Funded by the EC Inco-Copernicus Programme the EPIC project: i) collated The project
therefore aims to collate information relating to the environmental transfer and fate
of selected radionuclides through aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in the Arctic; ( ii)
identify suggested reference Arctic biota that can be used to evaluate potential dose rates to biota
in different terrestrial, freshwater and marine environments; ( iii) model the uptake of a
suite of radionuclides to reference Arctic biota; (iv) development of a reference set of
develop a set of reference dose models for reference Arctic biota; (viv) compilation compiled of data on dose-effects
relationships and assessments of potential radiological consequences for reference
Arctic biota; (vi) and integration of assessments of the environmental impact from
radioactive contamination with those for other contaminants.

. The project worked closely with the FASSET consortium developing some joint databases.
