A large ocean-going container ship is shown underway on open water, illustrating the vessel that houses ballast tanks within its hull. In marine ecology and environmental microbiology, ballast water—seawater taken up for stability—functions to control vessel trim but can transport plankton, bacteria, and larvae between ports. The illustrated entity is a ship and its ballast water system (engineering structure and fluid medium) located below the waterline. This context relates to biosecurity and compliance with the IMO (International Maritime Organization) BWM (Ballast Water Management) Convention to reduce invasive species transfer.
