Detection of wind turbines rotary motion by birds: A matter of speed and contrast
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 5, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023 Some bird species may detect low‐speed rotation on wind turbines as static. A low contrast between the wind turbine and its background increases the rotation speed treshold at which this phenomenon appears. Automatic Detection Systems used to slow down wind turbines when birds are approaching may thus be counterproductive.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 9, Page 1752-1762, September 2023., 2023 Ground‐mounted solar photovoltaic developments have a significant negative effect on bat activity, and should be considered in appropriate planning legislation and policy. Solar photovoltaic developments should be screened in Environmental Impact Assessments for ecological impacts, and appropriate mitigation (e.g.

Land cover changes with the development of anaerobic digestion for biogas production in France
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 630-641, May 2023., 2023 We characterized and quantified the land cover changes in farms associated with biogas plants in France, by combining two national spatialized databases. We showed that, on average, the changes were limited, with an increase in maize areas compensated by a decrease in wheat and rapeseed areas, but with a certain variability.

Energy cover crops for biogas production increase soil organic carbon stocks: A modeling approach
GCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 2, Page 224-238, February 2023., 2023 The anaerobic digestion of cover crops for biogas production does not compete directly with food production and is promoted in various countries. Some questions arose regarding the effects of energy cover crops on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks.

Antipode, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 200-221, January 2021., 2021 Abstract Community renewable energy (CRE) represents a growing empirical and academic turn towards community‐based sustainability and climate change interventions. This paper brings together postcolonial theory and CRE for the first time to outline fundamental tensions in the conceptualisation and application of the idea of community. The understanding
