Low salinity as a biosecurity tool for minimizing biofouling on ship sea chests
<p>Biofouling is a major vector in the transfer of non-native species around the world. Species can be transported on virtually all submerged areas of ships (e.g. hulls, sea chests, propellers) and so antifouling systems are used to reduce fouling. However, with increased regulation of bioc...
