Modeling the power of acoustic monitoring to predict bat fatalities at wind turbines

Abstract Large numbers of bats are killed at wind turbines worldwide. To formulate mitigation measures such as curtailment, recent approaches relate the acoustic activity of bats around reference turbines to casualties to extrapolate fatality rates at turbines where only acoustic surveys are conduct...
