AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF MARINE FOULING FOR MARINE SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS

Abstract

The annotated bibliography was compiled to provide information and guidance to the marine scientist or engineer who must contend with those animals and plants which attach themselves to man-made underwater objects, i.e., fouling organisms. The references selected for this bibliography are those which help answer one or more of the following questions: What kind of fouling can one expect to find in various parts of the world; What are the factors which tend to promote or discourage the settlement and growth of fouling organisms; and What are the effects of this settlement and growth on the performance of coatings, sensors, and hardware.
