This highly respected work by the eminent Alexander Railken delivers a quantitative description of colonization processes and detailing ways to prevent biofouling. Taking a complex problem, he breaks it down into its fundamental ecological and biological components. Providing a depth of coverage rarely found in a single text, he expounds on organism locomotor reactions, larvae drift, settlement and attachment mechanisms, current impact, protection from epibionts, industrial biofouling protection, and ecological biofouling control. Offering a detailed examination of substrate organisms and preventive methods, this volume elaborates on how we can protect self-purifying organisms from biofoulers.
