Abstract

This paper reports on results of the investigation of marine biofouling on offshore structures east of Hainan Island in the northern South China Sea. Two buoy investigation stations were deployed in Qiongdong (W1

68 n miles offshore) and southern Qiongdong (J2

23 n miles offshore) waters

respectively. At both sites

water depths were more than 100 meters. Test panels on iron frames were placed at 1

50 and 100 m below the seawater surface

and exposed for 8 months from October 1989 to June 1990. The results indicated that hydroids

gooseneck barnacles and oysters were the most important fouling species in these offshore areas. Acorn barnacles were mainly found at Station J2. The maximum fouling accumulations were observed in near surface waters. Substantial reduction of biomass and species diversity occurred with increasing depth and distance from shore. Sources of fouling organisms and influences of environmental factors on the species distributions are discussed in this paper.
