AB - This book presents a selection of new insights in understanding and mitigating impacts on wildlife and their habitats. Topics such as, species behaviour and responses; collision risk and fatality estimation; landscape features and gradients, are considered. Other chapters in the book cover the results of current research on mitigation; compensation; effectiveness of measures; monitoring and long-term effects; planning and siting. Examples are given of current research on shutdown on demand and curtailment algorithms. By identifying what we have learned so far, and which predominate uncertainties and gaps remain for future research, this book contributes to the most up to date knowledge on research and management options. This book includes presentations from the Conference on Wind Energy and Wildlife impacts (CWW15), March 2015, hosted by the Berlin Institute of Technology, which offered a platform to national and international participants to showcase the current state of knowledge in wind energy’s wildlife implications.Table of ContentsRed Kites and Wind Farms—Telemetry Data from the Core Breeding RangeUnforeseen Responses of a Breeding Seabird to the Construction of an Offshore Wind FarmA Large-Scale, Multispecies Assessment of Avian Mortality Rates at Land-Based Wind Turbines in Northern GermanyA Method to Assess the Population-Level Consequences of Wind Energy Facilities on Bird and Bat SpeciesBat Activity at Nacelle Height Over ForestBird Mortality in Two Dutch Wind Farms: Effects of Location, Spatial Design and Interactions with PowerlinesRadar Assisted Shutdown on Demand Ensures Zero Soaring Bird Mortality at a Wind Farm Located in a Migratory FlywayMitigating Bat Mortality with Turbine-Specific Curtailment Algorithms: A Model Based ApproachIs There a State-of-the-Art to Reduce Pile-Driving Noise?The Challenges of Addressing Wildlife Impacts When Repowering Wind Energy ProjectsWind Farms in Areas of High Ornithological Value—Conflicts, Solutions, Challenges: The Case of Thrace, GreeceIntroducing a New Avian Sensitivity Mapping Tool to Support the Siting of Wind Farms and Power Lines in the Middle East and Northeast AfricaA Framework for Assessing Ecological and Cumulative Effects (FAECE) of Offshore Wind Farms on Birds, Bats and Marine Mammals in the Southern North SeaWind Turbines and Birds in Germany—Examples of Current Knowledge, New Insights and Remaining GapsFuture Research Directions to Reconcile Wind Turbine–Wildlife InteractionsSharing Information on Environmental Effects of Wind Energy Development: WREN Hub
