Shortlisted for the 2023 Southwood Prize Elizabeth Tinsley talks us through how she and colleagues conducted a paired study at 19 ground-mounted solar PV developments in southwest England. Through the use of static detectors to record bat echolocation calls and the development of generalised linear mixed-effect models, it was determined that ground-mounted solar photovoltaic developments have a significant negative effect on bat activity.

Ontario is home to eight native species of freshwater turtles – the biggest species variety and greatest density of turtles in Canada. Unfortunately for our turtles, Ontario is also home to the highest density of roadways. Turtles are semi-aquatic meaning that they spend time in water and on land. They spend the winters “hibernating” at the bottom of lakes, ponds or rivers usually buried in the mud for protection.
