Figure 3 All of these measurements will help scientists and developers better understand air - sea interactions and their impact on how
much wind energy a turbine could capture at particular offshore sites.
Every year, vehicle collisions account for about 14 million bird deaths, communication towers 221,000, and
wind energy turbines kill about 45,000.
Habitat destruction and fragmentation, pollution, and erecting buildings and other structures (
wind energy turbines) in the path of birds cause a significant amount of death and injury.
