Abstract
⺠This paper extends an approach to assess impacts of offshore wind farms on seabirds. ⺠It separates risk in terms of collision mortality from that related to disturbance and avoidance. ⺠It identifies seabird species at greatest risk of adverse impacts from offshore wind farms. ⺠This will help to inform conservation policy (for example by indicating monitoring priorities).
