- Hull fouling is a risk factor for intercontinental species exchange in aquatic ecosystems (2007, background): “Although fouling communities are increasingly recognized as a continuing source of nonindigenous species (Fofonoff et al. 2003, Minchin and Gollasch 2003), few studies have quantified this risk (Coutts 1999, Gollasch 2002, Coutts and Taylor 2004, Ruiz and Smith 2005).”
- The invasion of the azooxanthellate coral Tubastraea (Scleractinia: Dendrophylliidae) throughout the world: history, pathways and vectors (2016, methodology): “using life histories, growth rates, timing, rates of range expansion, analyses of possible points of introduction and their associated activities and vectors, mapping of outbreaks and historical or anecdotal information on vectors preferred by specific NIS or groups it is possible to deduce which ve”
- Changes in Global Economies and Trade: the Potential Spread of Exotic Freshwater Bivalves (2007, background): “With an increase in international trade over the 19th and especially the 20th centuries, many more species have been introduced into different parts of the world (Mills et al. 1993a; Fofonoff et al. 2003).”
- Climate change, non‐indigenous species and shipping: assessing the risk of species introduction to a high‐Arctic archipelago (2014, background): “Despite the stochastic nature of the process, several studies have indicated that biofouling likely accounts for more NIS introductions than ballast water (Fofonoff et al., 2003; Davidson et al., 2009b; Hewitt & Campbell, 2010).”
- Marine invasion history and vector analysis of California: a hotspot for western North America (2011, background): “This is perhaps best exemplified in species that have benthic and pelagic life stages that could be associated with the hulls or ballast tanks of ships, respectively (Fofonoff et al., 2003).”
- Assessment and Control of Biological Invasion Risks (2006, background): “In San Francisco Bay and Australia, although hull fouling is the most important vector, it is also thought that ballast water has become a major vector in the past 10 or 20 years (Fofonoff et al. 2003, Hewitt et al. 2004, Wonham and Carlton 2005).”
- Hull fouling as an invasion vector: can simple models explain a complex problem? (2011, background): “…and hull fouling communities can be partially explained by the different time frames of the hull sampling – typically sampled over a few years – and the assemblage of the harbour communities sampled, which often have been exposed to centuries of hull fouling introductions (Fofonoff et al. 2003).”
- Recreational boating: a large unregulated vector transporting marine invasive species (2011, background): “Following this ban, there has been an increase in hull fouling which recently has caused resurgence in the importance of this vector for NIS transport (Fofonoff et al., 2003).”
