We win a high-profile bird collision avoidance study in the United Kingdom
In collaboration with NIRAS and BirdLife Denmark, we’ve been awarded a high-profile research project focusing on the collision risks of birds at offshore wind farm.
Part of the Offshore Renewables Joint Industry Programme (ORJIP), this technically challenging project will quantify and interpret avoidance behaviour of key marine bird species. The results of the study will be used to obtain a more realistic estimate of bird collisions with offshore wind farms. Read more >>>

Providing the modelling software for a project using drones to analyse coastal erosion
We are a partner on the Innovative Methodologies for Coastal Environmental Monitoring and Analysis (MIRAMar) project in Italy. Researches will use our MIKE by DHI software for the modelling portion of the study.
The MIRAMar project is examining new ways to survey, monitor and analyse the effects of strong wind and waves on shorelines using small, remote-controlled, camera-equipped drones. A team of scientists, including Alessio Rovere (Junior Research Group Leader, the Centre of Marine Environmental Sciences and the Centre for Tropical Marine Ecology, University of Bremen) and Elisa Casella (Environmental Engineer, University of Genoa, Italy) are working on the project.

Evaluating the future impact of land-use and development policies for the Elbow River Watershed
We helped Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development (ESRD) and the University of Calgary develop an integrated dynamic modelling system for the Elbow River watershed.
This system will help stakeholders understand the potential impact of land-use changes and climate change scenarios on the Elbow River Watershed’s hydrological processes. Read more >>>

Conducting a flooding study for Jaslovske Bohunice Nuclear Power Plant in Slovakia
We helped Jaslovske Bohunice Nuclear Power Plant ensure it has adequate flood prevention measures in place in the event of extreme rainfall.
The tsunami that severely damaged Japan’s Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant on 11 March 2011 highlighted the global concern for ensuring the safety of nuclear power plants. After the tsunami, crisis managers in the nuclear energy sector started to prepare and upgrade risk studies, taking all possible sources of risk into account. Read more >>>
