• Best practice—Is natural revegetation sufficient to achieve mitigation goals in road construction? 

      Mehlhoop, Anne Catriona; Skrindo, Astrid Brekke; Evju, Marianne; Hagen, Dagmar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Aims: The area influenced by road construction is large, and measures to re-establish vegetation in disturbed areas are routinely carried out to reduce impacts on biodiversity. However, goals of mitigation measures are ...
    • Effect of tower base painting on willow ptarmigan collision rates with wind turbines 

      Stokke, Bård Gunnar; Nygård, Torgeir; Falkdalen, Ulla; Pedersen, Hans Christian; May, Roelof Frans (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      1. Birds colliding with turbine rotor blades is a well-known negative consequence of wind-power plants. However, there has been far less attention to the risk of birds colliding with the turbine towers, and how to mitigate ...
    • Paint it black: Efficacy of increased wind turbine rotor blade visibility to reduce avian fatalities 

      May, Roelof Frans; Nygård, Torgeir; Falkdalen, Ulla; Åström, Jens; Hamre, Øyvind; Stokke, Bård Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      As wind energy deployment increases and larger wind-power plants are considered, bird fatalities through collision with moving turbine rotor blades are expected to increase. However, few (cost-) effective deterrent or ...

    • Temporal patterns of moose-vehicle collisions with and without personal injuries 

      Niemi, Milla; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Neumann, Wiebke; Kukko, Tuomas; Tiilikainen, Raisa; Pusenius, Jyrki; Solberg, Erling Johan; Ericsson, Göran (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      tCollisions with wild ungulates are an increasing traffic safety issue in boreal regions. Crashes involvingsmaller-bodied deer species usually lead to vehicle damage only, whereas collisions with a large animal,such as the ...
