Paper:

Migratory movements of British and Irish common shelduck Tadorna tadorna: a review of ringing data and a pilot tracking study to inform potential interactions with offshore wind farms in the North Sea.

Ros M.W. Green, Niall H.K. Burton and Aonghais S.C.P. Cook (2021) Ringing and Migration, 34, p71 – 83.

This summarises the results presented in the reports below, and contextualises why these are important for assessing offshore wind farm interactions. Data on connectivity, migration routes, flight height and speed are presented.

Report:

Pilot tracking study of the migratory movements of shelduck to inform understanding of potential interactions with offshore wind farms in the North Sea.

Ros M.W. Green, Niall H.K. Burton and Aonghais S.C.P. Cook (2020) BTO Research Report 725.

This summarises the results of our first tracking study in 2019, where four adults were tracked on migration across the North Sea from the Suffolk coast to the Wadden Sea. Details of the catching and tagging methods are given, as well as the summaries of the migration data collected, including routes, timings, flight heights, flight speeds, and stop-over durations.

Report:

Review of the migratory movements of shelduck to inform understanding of potential interactions with offshore wind farms in the southern North Sea.

Ros M.W. Green, Niall H.K. Burton and Aonghais S.C.P. Cook (2019) BTO Research Report 718.

This is the initial piece of work that started the whole research project. It gives an overview of what was known about shelduck migration in the north-west European population up to 2019, and highlights where the major knowledge gaps are that prevent accurate assessment of the potential for shelduck to interact with offshore wind farms.

Poster:

Wildfowl migration in relation to offshore wind farms (OWFs): A PhD case study of the common shelduck (Tadorna tadorna).

Ros M.W. Green, Niall H.K. Burton, Aonghais S.C.P. Cook, Samantha E. Franks, Rachel M. Jeffreys and Jonathan A. Green (2022). Poster presented at the Conference on Wind Energy and Wildlife Impacts 2022.

This poster outlines the aims and objectives of each of my PhD chapters, and gave me an opportunity to ask industry professionals for useful information to help with these aims.
