| In most biofouling organisms, settlement and metamorphosis are so tightly coupled that there is some debate as to whether they are actually separate processes. |
| The new prototype will pull the cages through brushes and spray nozzles to control biofouling and unwanted marine growth. |
| They have excellent resistance to seawater corrosion and biofouling, but are susceptible to erosion-corrosion at high water velocities. |
| She has created an artificial sharkskin that mimics natural sharkskin's innate resistance to biofouling. |
| The two organisms used in the present study represent the two most common forms of algal biofouling in the marine environment. |
| Thus, in contrast to biofouling organisms, settlement and metamorphosis are probably not tightly coupled, as megalopae can move between sites before metamorphosis. |
