Limitations and Areas for Improvement of the ‘Supplier and Site’ Protocols
Limitations and Areas for Improvement of the ‘Supplier and Site’ Protocols This report analyses the CNRS MAPE protocols (Supplier and Site) applied to the SafeWind system. It identifies technical errors in R scripts, methodological limitations regarding file formats, timestamp management, [...]
Biodiv-Wind publishes the first study identifying which wind turbine rotation speeds pose the greatest collision risk to birds.
The need to reduce bird collisions with wind turbines has prompted numerous studies and research efforts. However, this issue is still most often addressed by simply "counting carcasses," which does not allow for a clear understanding of the conditions in [...]
New Biodiv-Wind Study
Acoustic bat detection systems have become essential for understanding bat activity and implementing appropriate protection measures around wind farms. Yet, very few studies have compared their performance, even though these devices directly influence the quality of the data used to [...]
Birds versus wind turbines? Detection technologies effectively contribute to resolving the conflict!
The French company Biodiv-Wind¹ publishes the first study explaining how Avian Detection Systems (ADS) reduce the risk of bird collisions with wind turbines. Stopping the rotation of a wind turbine when a bird is in close proximity during flight [...]
