Compounding the problem is the design of some wind turbines: The lattice work found on older models makes an ideal perch for larger birds of prey, so they're attracted to the same spires that are also a death trap. Wind-farm siting is another factor. Many wind farms, like the Altamont ...

Where birds and wind turbines meet 喜欢 0 阅读量: 13 作者:Bronwen,Parsons 摘要: The first day our company moved into our new suburban office building, I walked out of the front door only to see a large bird lying freshly crushed and mangled on the ground. We're so shielded from death...
The 2D KUD showed a substantial overlap of the birds' flight paths with the wind turbines in the study area, whereas the 3D kernel estimate did not show such overlap. Our aim was to develop a new approach using 3D kernel estimation to understand the space use of soaring birds; these are...
wind turbines are a relatively clean means of producing electricity, compared with other conventional power plants, there are environmental impacts. There has been some concern over the noise produced by rotor blades, visual impacts, and the interaction of birds and wind turbines. Most of t[...
(a.k.a. Zen Wind Curtains) "Forget about the fact that they save birds. They just look cool." Why do birds sometimes fly into glass? "Hummingbirds were always flying into a big picture window at our mountain house. Since installing the BirdSavers we haven’t had any fly into the wi...
