Delighted to have had the opportunity to present my latest results from the APOCOPE project at the 8th Conference on Wind energy and Wildlife impacts - CWW2025.

🔜 Hoping to share the final results with you very soon, stay tuned!

@elisesvlt.bsky.social identified a positive relationship between the acoustic activity of bats at wind turbine nacelle height and the number of fatalities 🦇

Further studies will aim to identify risk behaviors allowing to predict mortality.

New OA 🦇 Research 📄

Well done Penelope, @orlyrazgour.bsky.social and many others!

Elise Sivault provides the story behind her paper, “Insectivorous birds and bats outperform ants in the top-down regulation of arthropods across strata of a Japanese temperate forest“, which was shortlisted for this year’s Elton Prize.🌳

🦇Last paper by #TeamChiro is out!

90% of wind turbines approved in France are placed in areas critical for #bats, highlighting a failure to assess biodiversity significance.

In this paper, we propose a modeling framework to promote a more biodiversity-friendly approach to renewable energy planning

The 8th European Conference of Tropical Ecology in Amsterdam approaches!

🎓 Reminder for students: The deadline for the Society's Student Research Grant Program is March 31, 2025.
