One of the German government's aims is to ensure the environmentally sound and sustainable development of offshore wind energy. Germany's first offshore test site, alpha ventus, was therefore accompanied from the construction phase to the first years of operation by an intensive environmental research programme, the StUKplus project, financed by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety and coordinated by the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency. Marine and ecological aspects have been researched there for more than five years to improve the level of knowledge about the ecological impacts of offshore windfarms. This book provides a broad, richly illustrated overview of applied and new research methods and monitoring techniques. It summarises the key research findings on the impacts on benthic communities, fish, marine mammals and birds, also taking into account underwater sound and sediment measurements. Interpreting the results in the sense of lessons learned, new challenges and perspectives are discussed for future sustainable offshore development in German waters. 000697599 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 7, 2014). 000697599 650_0 $$aOffshore wind power plants$$zGermany. 000697599 7101_ $$aGermany.$$bBundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit. 000697599 7101_ $$aGermany.$$bBundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie. 000697599 852__ $$bebk 000697599 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-658-02462-8$$zOnline Access 000697599 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:697599$$pGLOBAL_SET 000697599 980__ $$aEBOOK 000697599 980__ $$aBIB 000697599 982__ $$aEbook 000697599 983__ $$aOnline 000697599 994__ $$a92$$bISE
