RE scenarios from a nature conservation viewpoint
The project aims to find a balance between the economic and technical requirements of future renewable energy sites and the most environmentally compatible development of them. The alternative…
MoreRenewables in nature conservation monitoring
The project fills the gap of a missing overall view of the effects of the expansion of renewable energies on nature and landscape since 1991. The research project will examine the impact of the…
MoreSmall wind turbines and bats
While the danger to bats from large wind turbines has now been proved, there is still uncertainty about the effects of small wind turbines (SWT). Based on a before-and-after comparison, bat behaviour…
MoreSpecies and site protection in planning
The main focus of the project is to standardise and optimise the processes for the legal review of species and site protection at higher planning levels. This concentrates in particular on the higher…
MoreSpecies conservation and small wind turbines
This project records baseline data on a larger scale for the first time in order to evaluate the effects of small wind turbines on birds and bats. The study also analyses the relevant determining…
MoreTelemetric monitoring of eagle owls
With an estimated number of 400 breeding pairs, the eagle owl is almost present throughout Schleswig-Holstein. Aim of this telemetry study is to provide a more accurate estimate of the risk for eagle…
MoreTree species in German forests
This project aims to compare different methods for assessing the naturalness of the tree species composition of woodlands in Germany and presents suggestions for a more transparent and spatially and…
MoreUnderwater noise effects from offshore wind energy (UWE)
With the use of the North and Baltic Seas as sites for wind turbines, marine mammals are being exposed to increasing underwater noise. The planned methods and measuring procedures enable an…
