Marine Fouling Insights

This document provides an overview of marine fouling, which is the natural accumulation of plants, algae, and animals on ship hulls and structures in the marine environment. It leads to increased drag and decreased performance over time. The document classifies fouling organisms into macrofouling, consisting of larger organisms like barnacles, and microfouling, consisting of bacteria, algae, and spores. It describes common macrofoulers like barnacles, hydroids, and tubeworms and their life cycles, highlighting their reproductive potential and ability to rapidly colonize surfaces as fouling problems for ships.
