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
-
Excel database containing the information collected for the atlas (45 sources for the French maritime façades + 24 on a global scale) and shapefiles for the cartographic representation of the available data

The objective of the CARAVELE project was to improve the characterisation of extreme winds by combining atmospheric models with satellite and in-situ observations.
-
Synthesis of existing data for the modeling work to follow (modeling in the deliverables of lot 3)

To reduce the number of interventions and maintenance operations, it is necessary to monitor the proliferation of marine fouling in real time and over a long period. This is why it is necessary to have an in situ optical video system that is protected for as long as possible against biocolonisation.

This deliverable consists of two parts, first a legal guide to environmental assessment for floating wind farm projects, then in a second part, a study on the legal framework for the spatial planning of floating wind farms: The place of environmental assessment
-
Proposal of protocols for measuring several biofouling variables (fresh weight in air, fresh weight in water, biovolume, thickness) that were tested during the project.
-
The objectives of the ABIOP+ project were to : • Provide characterisation protocols for biofouling on cable and mooring lines materials which are very vulnerable to this biological process, in order to collect quantitative in-situ data. • Inventory existing fouling management methods and test the solutions best suited for floating offshore wind turbines.
-
During the ABIOP project launch meeting, the consortium agreed to add a task to the project aimed at identifying the challenges of biocolonisation in an ORE context. This additional work is indeed necessary because it allows the organisation, updating and presentation of the reflections undertaken by biofouling experts from various industrial and research entities and federated by FEM, for several years on this topic.

Backup of the data used for characterising the different biofouling monitoring protocols in an excel file.
