A bird and small mammal BACI and IG design studies in a wind farm in Malpica (Spain)

Wind farms have shown a spectacular growth during the last 10 years. As far as we know, this study is the first where the relationship between wind power and birds and small mammals have been considered. Before-after control impact (BACI) study design to birds and Impact Gradient (IG) study design t...
