The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Estimating Wind‐Power Capacity Time Series From Production Data Using a Power Curve Model and Quadratic Optimization

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate, time‐resolved installed capacity data are crucial for forecasting and analysing wind‐power production. The time series of installed capacity is often only approximately known in regions with rapid wind power development. Public wind power databases may only be updated yearly and installation dates may not be differentiated within ...
