  abstract = {{C}herenkov light induced by radioactive decay products is one of the major sources of background light for deep-sea neutrino telescopes such as {ANTARES}. {T}hese decays are at the same time a powerful calibration source. {U}sing data collected by the {ANTARES} neutrino telescope from mid 2008 to 2017, the time evolution of the photon detection efficiency of optical modules is studied. {A} modest loss of only 20% in 9 years is observed. {T}he relative time calibration between adjacent modules is derived as well.},
