Article Synopsis
- Marine renewable energy developments can impact the environment in both direct ways, like collisions, and indirect ways, such as changes in ocean conditions.
- Current UK guidelines for Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA) and Habitats Regulations Appraisal (HRA) do not adequately address how these changes affect the distribution and movements of top predators, such as seabirds and fish.
- This study combines different data collection methods to better understand predator-prey relationships and suggests updating regulatory methods to improve assessments of ecosystem impacts related to climate change and renewable energy initiatives.
Plant-lepidopteran interactions involve complex processes encompassing molecules and regulators to counteract defense responses they develop against each other. Lepidoptera identify plants for oviposition and exploit them as larval food sources to complete their development. In turn, plants adopt different strategies to overcome and limit herbivorous damages.
