Distribution Models Reveal Important Coastal Habitats for Endangered Leatherback Sea Turtles
ABSTRACT Aim With the development and operation of offshore wind farms along the United States East Coast, it is imperative that we understand the distributions of vulnerable species so we can track and predict potential interactions. We focused on leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) as they depend on this region for important stages of ...

Two-scale momentum theory for very large wind farms [PDF]
A new theoretical approach is proposed to predict a practical upper limit to the efficiency of a very large wind farm. The new theory suggests that the efficiency of ideal turbines in an ideal very large wind farm depends primarily on a non-dimensional ...

Evaluating the Potential of ChatGPT to Support Climate Risk and Adaptation Assessment
Scaling up adaptation is essential for addressing climate risks, but there are no globally applicable, sector‐based inventories of adaptation options. Assistive technologies like ChatGPT can help with the rapid scoping of climate risks, adaptation actions, costs and benefits and flag potential maladaptation. Adaptation measures identified for national (
