Abstract
► In winter light-induced bird strikes occur regularly on vessels in SW Greenland. ► Bird strikes occur mainly in coastal areas when visibility is poor. ► At least ∼2050 birds are involved in bird strikes each winter in SW Greenland. ► The common eider accounts for 95% of all bird strike casualties. ► High-risk zones for bird strikes can be predicted based on simplified modelling.
