Colonization of blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) on offshore wave power installations on the Swedish west coast

The use of offshore energy conversion is predicted to expand significantly throughout estuarine and marine environments, with a global potential comparable to that of wind and hydro power. Therefor ...
