As small businesses scramble to keep their doors open and stay financially viable during the pandemic, Humboldt State’s Northern California Small Business Development Center (SBDC) has remained a critical resource for regional businesses and nonprofit organizations that desperately need access to grant and loan programs to survive.
Seabird species may be at risk for collision with, or displacement by, offshore wind turbines. Existing seabird distribution models describe the density and species composition in the California Current, and are used to identify hot spots for seabird activity. However, these models do not describe the three-dimensional distribution of flight behavior above the sea surface. Understanding flight height is key to accurately modeling the risk of direct interactions between seabirds and offshore wind turbines, and is the focus of Schatz Energy Research Center's latest offshore wind feasibility study.
Schatz Energy Research Center's latest study will model seabird flight behavior in response to wind speed, to better understand the risks associated with different turbine layouts and designs.
