These structures provide a new type of habitat— hard substrate on or above the soft, sedimented bottom (e.g., Degraer et al., 2020). The development, composition, and abundance of biofouling organisms on these structures are much less studied than those in the shallow waters (Cowie, 2010). Only patchy observations exist on the temporal scale of the biofouling process on hard substrates below 50 m depth (e.g., Apolinario and Coutinho, 2009; Cowie, 2010; Bellou et al., 2012; Degraer et al., 2020). Thus, our understanding of biofouling temporal and spatial scales, and its variation with depth, is limited. One way to increase the amount of data available for addressing the development of fouling communities is collection of long-term observations using replicates of different duration (e.g., Hutchison et al., 2020). These timeand effortconsuming studies are usually based on specially designed installations mounted at different depths (e.g., Railkin, 2004). Here, we propose a simple approach for collecting biofouling observations along with primary hydrological and geophysical data. The small addition of test panels to standard oceanographic instrumentation can help to fill the gaps in our understanding of the development of biofouling communities in lesser-known areas. Here, we first present a literature review of the state of knowledge of marine biofouling to introduce the field’s terms, concepts, and knowledge gaps. We then present two case studies that support our proposed approach to collecting biofouling information, followed by identification of further steps, recommendations, and research opportunities that will improve our understanding of biofouling with increasing water depth in the ocean.","PeriodicalId":54695,"journal":{"name":"Oceanography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42645992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

FINMARCHICUS ABUNDANCE Figure S1 shows the time series of the annual C. finmarchicus Abundance Index for the Gulf of Maine. It should be noted that NOAA funding cuts resulted in the Gulf of Maine Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) survey being discontinued in 2017. In addition, the survey route was changed in 2009, shifting its departure port from Boston, Massachusetts, to Portland, Maine. Therefore, coverage of Massachusetts Bay was discontinued, and coverage of the western Gulf of Maine was markedly different after 2009. Coverages of the eastern Gulf of Maine and western Scotian Shelf remained comparable. Results from a spatially and temporally resolved right whale reproduction model (Meyer-Gutbrod et al., 2015) demonstrated that when the summertime (third quarter–July, August, September) C. finmarchicus Abundance Index in the eastern Gulf of Maine falls below a certain threshold value, prenatal or neonatal calf mortality is triggered, presumably due to inadequate prey availability and poor maternal nutrition. This threshold value is shown in Figure S2, the time series of the summertime C. finmarchicus Abundance Index in the eastern Gulf of Maine. Due to the previously mentioned limitations in the availability of CPR survey data in the western Gulf of Maine during recent years, this threshold value could only be estimated, with the model using data through 2009. Because of this constraint, it was decided to show the threshold value in Figure S2 rather than in Figure 2c.","PeriodicalId":54695,"journal":{"name":"Oceanography","volume":"34 1","pages":"22-31"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47893190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
