About Me:

Trevor Peterson is a senior wildlife biologist at Stantec Consulting Services Inc., where he has worked since 2003, and is responsible for developing ecological survey protocols and conducting a variety of wildlife research, primarily related to assessments of bird and bat impacts at wind projects. He has played a leadership role in developing methods for ecological risk assessments for proposed wind projects as well as post-construction mortality surveys at operational wind farms. Mr. Peterson serves as a technical lead within Stantec for acoustic bat survey and data analysis methods. Trevor is also enrolled in the Ecology and Environmental Sciences program at the University of Maine, where he is pursuing a PhD based on use of acoustics to document offshore bat activity patterns and manage potential turbine-related impacts to bats associated with wind energy.
