Chapters cover: a world-wide survey of slime formation in anti-fouling paints; the source of algal colonizers on rock substrates in a freshwater impoundment; adhesion of fouling diatoms to surfaces; synergism between antifouling biocides; cell attachment mechanisms in the flagellate, colacium; fouling on paints containing copper and zinc; diatom communities on non-toxic substrata and two conventional antifouling surfaces immersed in langstone harbour; the phsyiological ecology of nuisance algae in an oligotrophic lake; physico-chemical processes affecting copper, tin and zinc toxicity to algae; the control of fouling by non-biocidal systems; algal biofouling of oligotrophic lake tahoe; growth of the fouling alga cladophora glomerata; alga fouling in the north sea; importance of variation in algal immigration and growth rates estimated by modelling benthic algal colonization; recent investigations into the effects of algae on corrosion; diatom communities on steel protected from corrosion in weawater; structural morphology of diatom-dominated stream biofilm communities under the impact of soil erosion; measurements ofmetabolic activities within a baltic fucus vesigulosus community; Blue boards with white lettering show light general edgewear and slight sunfading to spine.
