New research, just published in the journal
Ringing & Migration, has used state of the art tracking technology to investigate how one of Britain s largest ducks, the Shelduck, interacts with offshore wind turbines during their migration across the North Sea.
Their findings reveal - for the first time - the length, speed and flight heights of this journey.
Offshore wind farms are a key part of many governments strategies to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate climate change impacts. However, it is important to understand how they might affect wildlife.
The risk of colliding with wind turbines, is a particular concern to migratory species travelling across the sea, and there is also a potential increased energetic cost if wind farms act as a barrier that migrating birds must fly around.
