The biofouling on commercial and recreational vessels by Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) is a major contributor to their coast-wide spread. Through the rotational deployment of settlement plates at both new and long-term sites, this survey seeks to identify the current distribution of sessile AIS in British Columbia waters. Priority areas include the ports of Prince Rupert and Vancouver as they are potential invasion hot spots. Understanding their distribution supports the development of effective management strategies. |
