Abstract

In order to compare flight patterns at the Offshore Wind farm Egmond aan Zee (OWEZ) with flight patterns further offshore, densities, flight altitudes and species composition of flying birds far offshore were quantified. This was done by means of both visual and radar observations that were carried out from the NAM offshore gas platform K14 during one year. In this report the results of this study are presented.

The study was jointly commissioned by NoordzeeWind and We@Sea.

The Offshore Wind farm Egmond aan Zee has a subsidy from the Ministry of Economic Affairs under the CO2 reduction Scheme of the Netherlands.

The project was carried out by a project team from Bureau Waardenburg. Field work was carried out by Daniël Beuker, Mark Collier, Sjoerd Dirksen, Ruben Fijn en Karen Krijgsveld. Visual data were analysed and reported by Mark Collier. Radar data were analysed and reported by Abel Gyimesi, Ruben Fijn and Karen Krijgsveld
