Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jedes Jahr breiten sich invasive gebietsfremde Arten in neue Ökosysteme aus. Die von den Eindringlingen verursachten Auswirkungen können sich in kürzester Zeit bemerkbar machen und verheerend sein. Das Thema der invasiven gebietsfremden Arten ist umfassend, komplex und auf verschiedenen Ebenen von globaler Bedeutung. Verschärft wird es durch die Globalisierung der Weltwirtschaft und den zunehmenden Handel, durch den die natürlichen Barrieren für den Transfer von Arten durchbrochen werden. Invasive gebietsfremde Arten bedrohen die weltweite Nahrungsmittelversorgung, die Qualität und Verfügbarkeit von Trinkwasser sowie die Stromproduktion und -versorgung. Zusammen mit den zusätzlichen Risiken durch den globalen Klimawandel ist die weltweite Homogenisierung von Pflanzen, Tieren und Mikroben ein wesentlicher Faktor für den sich verschlechternden Gesundheitszustand der Ökosysteme und die nachlassenden Ökosystemdienstleistungen überall auf der Welt. Um dieser Entwicklung entgegenzuwirken, besteht die dringende Notwendigkeit einer einheitlichen Ausrichtung von Regierungen, Kulturen und Programmen und einer besseren grenzüberschreitenden Koordination. Nur so lassen sich die vielfältigen Bedrohungen durch invasive gebietsfremde Arten für die Umwelt, die Wirtschaft und die Gesundheit von Pflanzen und Tieren sowie insbesondere die menschliche Gesundheit effektiv bekämpfen. Dieses vierbändige Werk ist das erste, das einen umfassenden Satz nützlicher Materialien zu den zentralen Themen bereitstellt, um die gesamte globale Bedrohung durch invasive gebietsfremde Arten sowie die vielfältigen Probleme in verschiedenen Teilen der Welt deutlich zu machen, und es enthält Material, in dem potenziell replizierbare Lösungen zur Überwindung dieser Bedrohungen aufgezeigt werden. Das Werk betont die Bedrohung durch invasive gebietsfremde Arten auch im Sinne eines globalen ?Aufrufs zum Handeln?. Invasive Arten kennen keine Grenzen. Daher hoffen wir, dass wir durch die Zusammenstellung von Material, das unterschiedliche wissenschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Standpunkte aus aller Welt berücksichtigt, sowie durch die Vermittlung von Erkenntnissen und Beispielen zu einer Vielzahl damit zusammenhängender Themen das globale Bewusstsein stärken und einheitliche nationale Reaktionen auf die Bedrohung durch invasive gebietsfremde Arten fördern können.
Book Synopsis Advances in Marine Antifouling Coatings and Technologies by : Claire Hellio
Download or read book Advances in Marine Antifouling Coatings and Technologies written by Claire Hellio and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2009-05-22 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine biofouling can be defined as the undesirable accumulation of microorganisms, algae and animals on structures submerged in seawater. From the dawn of navigation, marine biofouling has been a major problem for shipping in such areas as reduced speed, higher fuel consumption and increased corrosion. It also affects industries using off-shore structures such as oil and gas production and aquaculture. Growing concerns about the environmental impact of antifouling coatings has led to major new research to develop more environmentally-friendly alternatives. Advances in marine antifouling coatings and technologies summaries this wealth of research and its practical implications. This book is divided into four sub-sections which discuss: marine fouling organisms and their impact, testing and development of antifouling coatings, developments in chemically-active marine antifouling technologies, and new surface approaches to the control of marine biofouling. It provides an authoritative overview of the recent advances in understanding the biology of fouling organisms, the latest developments on antifouling screening techniques both in the field and in the laboratory, research on safer active compounds and the progress on nontoxic coatings with tailor-made surface properties. With its distinguished editors and international team of contributors, Advances in marine antifouling coatings and technologies is a standard reference for manufacturers of marine antifouling solutions, the shipping industry, oil and gas producers, aquaculture and other industries using offshore structures, and academics researching this important area. Assesses marine antifouling organisms and their impact, including a historical review and directions for future research Discusses developments in antifouling coatings examining chemically-active and new surface approaches Reviews the environmentally friendly alternative of safer active compounds and the progress of non-toxic compounds

Book Synopsis Preventing the Spread of Aquatic Invasive Species by Recreational Boats by : Stephanie Showalter
Download or read book Preventing the Spread of Aquatic Invasive Species by Recreational Boats written by Stephanie Showalter and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Recreational boating is incredibly popular in the United States. According to the U.S. Coast Guard's Recreational Boating Statistics, over 12.4 million recreational vessels were registered in the states in 2010. Many of these vessels are small enough to be towed overland on trailers, allowing boaters to enjoy the wonderful fishing, water sport, and scenic opportunities available at waters around the country. Unfortunately, more is moving than just boats. Mud and plants can cling to the exterior of boats and boat trailers. Water can remain in ballast tanks, live wells, and other compartments. If proper precautions are not taken, boaters may inadvertently transport species to new environments where they can cause economic, environmental, and human harm by disrupting existing ecosystems. In extreme cases, these new arrivals - referred to as "aquatic invasive species"--Can reduce fish populations, alter water quality, and damage public infrastructure. In recent years, states around the country have taken action to reduce the risk that aquatic invasive species, such as quagga mussels and Eurasian water milfoil, are spread through the movement of trailered boats. States have funded extensive public education and outreach campaigns to raise awareness of the threat and promote best management practices. Some have enacted laws that require boaters to self-inspect their boats and pull drain plugs upon exiting from the water. A few states, primarily concentrated in the west where the looming threat of a quagga or zebra mussel invasion prompted legislative action, have implemented watercraft inspection and decontamination (WID) programs. WID programs seek to reduce the risk of aquatic invasive species spread through the inspection and decontamination of watercraft and equipment by trained personnel. Currently western WID programs take a variety of forms. Although standard protocols for inspection and decontamination have been developed by the Pacific State Marine Fisheries Commission, state usage and terminology varies. Other non-western states also have some similar provisions and protocols in place, but again these vary. As a result, boaters crossing state lines encounter a potentially confusing array of inspection and decontamination requirements. Inspectors are often unsure of the WID history of a given boat and thus may unknowingly subject a boat to more scrutiny than is necessary. This increases WID implementation costs and inconveniences boaters. Interstate cooperation and reciprocity is essential to effectively manage aquatic invasive species risks from recreational boats and other pathways. Purpose: These Model State Legislative Provisions were developed for two purposes. First, the provisions provide guidance to states with WID programs to create a foundation for reciprocity. Second, for states without WID programs, the provisions outline a legal framework for the authorization of new WID programs. Where states are able to align their legal authorities on this topic, the initial groundwork is laid to facilitate the adoption of standard protocols and agreements among states to accept one another's inspections, decontaminations, and receipts. In turn, alignment of state legislative provisions can greatly reduce confusion among the boating public and increase compliance, reduce the need for federal legislation to address interstate issues, and simplify law enforcement with respect to knowing violators or repeat offenders."--Executive Summary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INVASIVE ALIEN SPECIES Invasive Alien Species: Observations and Issues from Around the World Volume 1: Issues and Invasions in Africa Invasive alien species are spreading into new ecosystems each year. The impacts caused by these invaders can be swift and devastating. The topic of invasive alien species is large, complex, and globally significant at various scales, exacerbated by the globalization of world economies and increased trade and commerce that has overcome natural barriers to species movement. Invasive alien species threaten global food supplies, water quality and availability, and energy production and delivery. With the added risks associated with global climate change, the global homogenization of plants, animals, and microbes is a major factor in the decline in ecosystem health and ecosystem services worldwide. To counter this trend, there is a critical need to unify governments, cultures, and programs to improve cross-boundary coordination to effectively address the wide range of invasive alien species threats to the environment, economies, and to plant and animal health; particularly human health. This 4-volume work is the first to compile a set of useful material for key topics, to provide a better understanding of the overall global threat of invasive alien species and the diverse array of problems faced around the world, and assemble material that includes potential replicable solutions to overcome these threats. The books also highlight the threat posed by invasive alien species in terms of a global ‘call to action’. Since invasive species know no boundaries, it is our hope that by compiling material from different scientific and social perspectives around the world, and sharing knowledge and examples of a diverse array of associated topics, we can advance global awareness and improve unified national responses to the threat posed by invasive alien species.
