A refinement of the Band spreadsheet for wind turbine collision risk allowing for oblique entry

A new spreadsheet is presented, to be used as part of the Band model for estimating potential avian mortality due to wind turbine strike. The spreadsheet extends the Band collision risk spreadsheet by allowing for oblique approach angles and wind speed. The differences in the results between this ne...
