@elisesvlt.bsky.social identified a positive relationship between the acoustic activity of bats at wind turbine nacelle height and the number of fatalities 🦇

Further studies will aim to identify risk behaviors allowing to predict mortality.

🦇Last paper by #TeamChiro is out!

90% of wind turbines approved in France are placed in areas critical for #bats, highlighting a failure to assess biodiversity significance.

In this paper, we propose a modeling framework to promote a more biodiversity-friendly approach to renewable energy planning
