DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is essential reading for anyone engaged in the multi-billion dollar marina industry. Everyone, whether experienced marina operator, designer, developer or indeed anyone with an interest in refurbishing an existing property will find a wealth of information within the chapters. Readers are provided with a snapshot of the marina industry today and a look at tomorrow's information technology developments that will be pivotal to the success of the marina of the future. It gives detailed information on what a marina developer/designer should consider, when designing a new marina. In addition to compiling data that will be not found elsewhere - including global marina maps (showing 17300 marinas), the book explores in some depth the environmental issues in siting and designing marinas. This Book is been used as the primary textbook, by the University of IZMIR, for the 2 year course Marina Management and Sustainability.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMarine 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
