Atlas of the biofouling of the French maritime façades

The main objective of this atlas is to summarise the knowledge acquired on biofouling, and more generally on communities of living organisms on hard substrates, available today in mainland France and the French overseas territories, in order to anticipate the issues that this phenomenon will pose in an ORE context. The atlas is based on the most exhaustive bibliographical analysis possible, including A-level scientific articles, reports (training courses, monitoring, studies), and works presenting the results of studies conducted in French waters

Statement: This atlas was produced on the basis of the analysis of 45 documents in the perimeter defined for the ABIOP project (French waters). Precise information was extracted from these documents and used to fill in two main databases: 1) document analysis (109 categories) and 2) geographical coordinates of the sites and stations monitored in the studies analysed (55 categories).
