Combining radar and direct observation to estimate pelican collision risk at a proposed wind farm on the Cape west coast, South Africa

Pre-construction assessments of bird collision risk at proposed wind farms are often confounded by insufficient or poor quality data describing avian flight paths through the development area. These limitations can compromise the practical value of wind farm impact studies. We used radar- and observ...
