• Detached aquaculture buoys in the SE Pacific: Potential dispersal vehicles for associated organisms (2009, background): “The taxa found on both types of buoys abound in fouling communities on aquaculture installations (Uribe et al. 2001, Pacheco & Garate 2005) and on ship hulls (Farrapeira et al. 2007, Mineur et al. 2007).”
• Taking stock: inventory of alien species in the Mediterranean sea (2009, background): “…ship coating recently introduced as a substitute to TBT based antifouling paints ‘‘may not be as effective, possibly resulting in more species being transported’’ (Gollasch 2006, p. 88), and the ‘‘...number of introductions by hull fouling may increase significantly’’ (Mineur et al. 2007).”
• Marine invasion history and vector analysis of California: a hotspot for western North America (2011, background): “Current management to prevent shipmediated invasions has focused primarily on ballast water treatment (Ruiz & Carlton, 2003), but a large component of ship-mediated invasions may result from organisms on ships' hulls (Godwin, 2003; Coutts & Taylor, 2004; Mineur et al., 2007; Davidson et al., 2008).”
• European seaweeds under pressure: Consequences for communities and ecosystem functioning (2015, background): “Mineur et al. / Journal of Sea Research 98 (2015) 91–108”
• The Biodiversity of the Mediterranean Sea: Estimates, Patterns, and Threats (2010, background): “The massive ‘‘official’’ and ‘‘unofficial’’ importation of foreign spat (young bivalves both before and after they become adherent) in the 1970s and 1980s coincided with a marked increase of alien species around oyster farms, and the aliens were considered to have arrived with the oysters [361].”
