- Acronym
- WINMON
- Abstract in English
- Data on the Belgian offshore wind farm environmental programme (WinMon.be). Within this monitoring programme, RBINS and its partners assess the extent of the anticipated impacts onto the marine ecosystem and aim at revealing the processes behind these impacts. The first objective is tackled through basic monitoring, focusing on the a posteriori, resultant impact quantification, while the second monitoring objective is covered by the targeted or process monitoring, focusing on the cause-effect relationships of a priori selected impacts.
