A spatially explicit approach to assess the collision risk between birds and overhead power lines: A case study with the little bustard

2014-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Collisions between birds and overhead power lines are an important cause of human-induced mortality. Mapping collision risk is an important prerequisite to minimise the negative impact of these structures on bird populations, particularly for species of high conservation concern and that are prone to collision. We mapped and modelled power line collision risk of a threatened and collision-prone species, the little...
