Archive of Measurement Uncertainties
Below are the accredited analytical methods and their measurement uncertainties listed, since November 2017. For information about earlier analytical methods from 1960s and onwards, see each method .
Geochemical laboratory
The laboratory works with chemical analyses of freshwater. We strive to make a good estimate of the actual concentrations of chemical substances in the environment and thereby gain knowledge of the
