Environmental impact and waste recycling technologies for modern wind turbines: An overview
Wind power is rapidly expanding worldwide, and so is the installation of wind turbines. The
concept of wind power as a clean-energy alternative will be questioned if the waste from …

Effects of wind farms on raptors: A systematic review of the current knowledge and the potential solutions to mitigate negative impacts
I Estellés‐Domingo, P López‐López - Animal Conservation, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Wind farms are a clean and efficient source of renewable energy. However, they cause
negative impacts on raptors. Here, we present a review of the existing scientific literature on …

Pay no attention to the model behind the curtain
PB Stark - Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2022 - Springer
Many widely used models amount to an elaborate means of making up numbers—but once
a number has been produced, it tends to be taken seriously and its source (the model) is …
