Microfouling investigations on Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus serratus at outer Kiel Fjord over one year (August 2012 - July 2013)

The present microfouling and bioassay data were used to analyse whether microfouling control of F. vesiculosus and F. serratus against prokaryotes and pennate diatoms fluctuates with season and correlates with in situ microfouling pressure. The two perennial brown macroalgae Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus serratus were sampled monthly from mixed stands at a depth of 0.5 m under mid water level at Bülk, outer Kiel Fjord, Germany (54°27'21 N / 10°11'57 E) within a one-year filed study (August 2012 - July 2013). Microfouler recruitment on glass (reference surface, n = 9 per month) and on both Fucus species (n = 9 per month and Fucus species) was determined monthly. Microfouling control strength of Fucus surface metabolites was tested by an in situ bioassay approach (n = 6 per month and species).
