The extent to which seabirds are displaced from, or attracted to, offshore wind farms (OWFs)
is uncertain, but rapid development of OWFs in European waters could conflict with seabird …

Offshore wind energy development (OWED) is rapidly expanding globally and has the
potential to contribute significantly to renewable energy portfolios. However, development of …

Population‐level estimates of species' distributions can reveal fundamental ecological
processes and facilitate conservation. However, these may be difficult to obtain for mobile …

Seabirds select suitable habitats at sea, but these habitats may be strongly impacted by
marine spatial planning, including the construction of offshore wind farms (OWFs) and the …

To prevent further global declines in biodiversity, identifying and understanding key habitats
is crucial for successful conservation strategies. For example, globally, seabird populations …

The risk of collision between birds and turbines is seen as one of the key issues in the
planning process for offshore wind farms. In some cases, predictions of collision risk have …

Through before–after control-impact designed ship-based seabird surveys, seabird
displacement occurring after the installation of an offshore wind farm at the Belgian Bligh …

Globally, the deployment of offshore wind is expanding rapidly. An improved understanding
of the economic, social and environmental impacts of this sector, and how they compare with …

Citizen scientists provide a cost-effective means of carrying out broad scale, long-term
monitoring of the environment while fostering earth stewardship. In this study we investigate …

Marine tidal-stream renewable energy devices (MREDs) are beginning to move from
