Ballast Water Exchange and Invasion Risk Posed by Intracoastal Vessel Traffic: An Evaluation Using High Throughput Sequencing

Darling, John A.; Martinson, John; Gong, Yunguo; Okum, Sara; Pilgrim, Erik; Lohan, Katrina M. Pagenkopp; Carney, Katharine J.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2018)

Ballast water remains a potent vector of non-native aquatic species introductions, despite increased global efforts to reduce risk of ballast water mediated invasions. This is particularly true of intracoastal vessel ...
Characteristics of global port phytoplankton and implications for current ballast water regulations

Soler-Figueroa, Brenda M.; Fontaine, Diana N.; Carney, Katharine J.; Ruiz, Gregory M.; Tamburri, Mario N. (2020)

The International Maritime Organization and U.S. Coast Guard have implemented regulations to reduce introductions of non-indigenous species via ballast water (BW). For phytoplankton, regulations limit discharges to= 50 mu ...
Design and installation of ballast water sample ports: Current status and implications for assessing compliance with discharge standards

Drake, Lisa A.; Bailey, Sarah A.; Brydges, Torben; Carney, Katharine J.; Ruiz, Gregory M.; Bayly-Stark, Jason; Drillet, Guillaume; Everett, Richard A. (2021)

To verify ships' compliance with ballast water regulations, samples may be collected and tested for viable organisms. This task is completed using a sample probe, which is placed in the ballast discharge pipe through ...
Difficulties in obtaining representative samples for compliance with the Ballast Water Management Convention

Carney, Katharine J.; Basurko, Oihane C.; Pazouki, Kayvan; Marsham, Sara; Delany, Jane E.; Desai, D. V.; Anil, A. C.; Mesbahi, Ehsan (2013)

As implementation of the Ballast Water Convention draws nearer a major challenge is the development of protocols which accurately assess compliance with the D-2 Standard. Many factors affect the accuracy of assessment: ...
Environmental DNA Metabarcoding: A Promising Tool for Ballast Water Monitoring

Rey, Anais; Carney, Katharine J.; Quinones, Luz E.; Lohan, Katrina M. Pagenkopp; Ruiz, Gregory M.; Basurko, Oihane C.; Rodriguez-Ezpeleta, Naiara (2019)

Nonindigenous species are introduced worldwide with ballast water (BW). To prevent further introductions, oceanic BW exchange and BW treatment systems are utilized, but their performance needs to be evaluated. To that aim, ...
Evaluating the combined effects of ballast water management and trade dynamics on transfers of marine organisms by ships

Carney, Katharine J.; Minton, Mark S.; Holzer, Kimberly K.; Miller, A. W.; McCann, Linda D.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2017)

Global trade by merchant ships is a leading mechanism for the unintentional transfer of marine organisms, including non-indigenous species, to bays and estuaries worldwide. To reduce the likelihood of new invasions, ships ...
Metabarcoding quantifies differences in accumulation of ballast water borne biodiversity among three port systems in the United States

Darling, John A.; Martinson, John; Pagenkopp Lohan, Katrina M.; Carney, Katharine J.; Pilgrim, Erik; Banerji, Aabir; Holzer, Kimberly K.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2020)
Molecular characterisation of protistan species and communities in ships ballast water across three U.S. coasts

Pagenkopp Lohan, Katrina M.; Fleischer, Robert C.; Carney, Katharine J.; Holzer, Kimberly K.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2017)
Pioneering patterns of ballast treatment in the emerging era of marine vector management

Davidson, Ian C.; Minton, Mark S.; Carney, Katharine J.; Miller, A. W.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2017)

Human-mediated transfer and invasions of organisms have permanently altered distribution patterns on a global scale. In response to growing numbers and impacts of invasions, global-scale vector management is advancing to ...
Potential effects of LNG trade shift on transfer of ballast water and biota by ships

Holzer, Kimberly K.; Muirhead, Jim R.; Minton, Mark S.; Carney, Katharine J.; Miller, A. W.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2017)

As the US natural gas surplus grows, so does the prospect of establishing new trade partnerships with buyers abroad, a process that has major consequences for global ship movement and ballast water delivery. Since US annual ...
Synthetic lipids as a biocide candidate for disinfection of ballast water

Batista, William R.; Fernandes, Flavio C.; Neves, Maria H. C. B.; Nascimento, Thiana S.; Lopes, Rosangela S. C.; Lopes, Claudio C.; Ziegler, Gregory P.; Soler-Figueroa, Brenda; Sparks, Darrick; Fontaine, Diana N.; Carney, Katharine J.; Quiñones-Oquendo, Luz E.; Ruiz, Gregory M. (2018)

The objective of this study is to propose the use of specific synthetic lipid as an active substance (biocide) in the control of harmful aquatic microorganisms, such as pathogens and non-indigenous species, transported in ...
A test of the framework designed to evaluate compliance monitoring devices for ballast water discharge

First, Matthew R.; Drake, Lisa A.; Molina, Vanessa; Moser, Cameron S.; Robbins-Wamsley, Stephanie H.; Riley, Scott C.; Buckley, Earle N.; Cangelosi, Allegra A.; Carney, Katharine J.; Johengen, Thomas H.; Purcell, Heidi; Reavie, Euan D.; Smith, G. Jason; Tamburri, Mario N. (2018)

With the entry of the Ballast Water Management Convention into force, ballast water discharged from ships must meet standards limiting the concentrations of living organisms. Monitoring devices to confirm compliance with ...
