       and ships -- Managing ballast water -- Shipboard treatment
       options -- Monitoring -- Conclusions and recommendations. 
520    The European zebra mussel in the Great Lakes, a toxic 
       Japanese dinoflagellate transferred to Australia--such 
       biologically and economically harmful stowaways have made 
       it imperative to achieve better management of ballast 
       water in ocean-going vessels. Stemming the Tide examines 
       the introduction of nonindigenous species through ballast 
       water discharge. Ballast is any solid or liquid that is 
       taken aboard ship to achieve more controlled and safer 
       operation. This expert volume (1) Assesses current 
       national and international approaches to the problem and 
       makes recommendations for U.S. government agencies, the 
       U.S. maritime industry, and the member states of the 
       International Maritime Organization; (2) Appraises 
       technologies for controlling the transfer of organisms--
       biocides, filtration, heat treatment, and others --with a 
       view toward developing the most promising methods for 
       shipboard demonstration; and, (3) Evaluates methods for 
       monitoring the effectiveness of ballast water management 
       in removing unwanted organisms. The book addresses the 
       constraints inherent in ballast water management, notably 
       shipboard ballast treatment and monitoring. Also, the 
       committee outlines efforts to set an acceptable level of 
       risk for species introduction using the techniques of risk
       analysis. Stemming the Tide will be important to all 
       stakeholders in the issue of unwanted species introduction
       through ballast discharge: policymakers, port authorities,
       shippers, ship operators, suppliers to the maritime 
       industry, marine biologists, marine engineers, and 
       environmentalists.
