Significant decline of Griffon Vulture collision mortality in wind farms during 13-year of a selective turbine stopping protocol

Significant decline of Griffon Vulture collision mortality in wind farms during 13-year of a selective turbine stopping protocol

Avian mortality is one of the most negative impacts of wind energy. Consequently, techniques that effectively reduce avian collision rates are necessary. One of such method is the stop-turbine system, otherwise known as a Turbine Shutdown System (TSS). Here, we analyzed changes in mortality during 1...
