Effectiveness of a Barge-Based Ballast Water Treatment System for Multi-Terminal Ports
Promet (Zagreb), 2015 The paper presents outcomes of the discrete event simulation of the ballast water management in a multi-terminal port. The simulation includes ship’s manoeuvring, cargo and ballast operations and a barge-based ballast water treatment system operating ...

Analysis of Ballast Water Discharged in Port—A Case Study of the Port of Ploče (Croatia)
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Ballast water is recognized as a major vector for the transfer of Harmful Aquatic Organisms and Pathogens (HAOP) and a source of sea pollution that negatively affects the environment and human health.

Biomonitoring 3.0: Beyond Taxa Lists to Evidence-Tiered Monitoring of Ecosystem Dynamics and Interactions. [PDF]
Ecol EvolBiomonitoring has scaled rapidly with high‐throughput sequencing, but most programs still culminate in taxa lists that are weakly linked to the interaction dynamics driving ecosystem change. Here we propose Biomonitoring 3.0 as interaction‐ready, time‐resolved monitoring that layers eDNA inventories with time‐structured sampling, interaction‐explicit ...

Systems and Operation of Ballast Water in Ships with the Changing Ballast Water Management Policy
, 2021 Bio-invasion caused due to ballast water discharge is one of many problems in marine pollution. Countries such as Canada, Brazil, USA and Australia recognized the problems associated with ballasting and deballasting. Countries affected with invasive species formulated specific laws for discharging ballast water in their respective ports.

KPI (KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS) APPLICATION ON BALLAST WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM SELECTION
Brodogradnja, 2017 Every day, more than 7,000 different marine species are transferred to different ecosystems via ballast water in ships. The introduction of invasive species can cause problems for native species.

A spatial modeling approach to predicting the secondary spread of invasive species due to ballast water discharge. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Ballast water in ships is an important contributor to the secondary spread of invasive species in the Laurentian Great Lakes. Here, we use a model previously created to determine the role ballast water management has played in the secondary spread of ...
