As concerns about climate change and increasing costs and long-term environmental impacts from the use of fossil fuels have heightened, wind has become an increasingly important sector of the energy...
Wind turbines can kill bats without touching them by causing a bends-like condition due to rapidly dropping air pressure, new research suggests.
I assessed the ability of dog?handler teams to recover dead bats (Chiroptera) during fatality searches typically performed at wind energy facilities to determine fatality rates for birds and bats. I...
Patterns of bat fatality, relationships between weather and turbine variables, and observations with thermal imaging all corroborate and suggest bat fatalities occur primarily on low wind nights, but...
