FISHOWF+ will investigate interactions between fish and offshore wind farms to better assess ecological impacts. More specifically, it aims to (i) promote and facilitate the integration of acoustic telemetry into marine monitoring frameworks for informed decision-making, (ii) characterise occupancy patterns and space use of fish within and across OWF at different development phases, (iii) identify in situ impacts of EMF subsystems on the movements of electro-sensitive fish, (iv) address knowledge gaps on regional connectivity and species functional zones to determine overlap with OWF development zones and, (v) integrate France tracking effort and results into European collaborations and address questions relating to effects of OWF development on fish migration at north-east Atlantic scale.
