Variation in quality of Golden Eagle territories and a management strategy for wind farm projects in northern Sweden

Capsule Breeding productivity of 86 occupied Golden Eagle territories in northern Sweden varied greatly, with the upper quartile of the most productive territories being responsible for 44% of the total productivity of the studied territories. This information is used in a regional strategy for managing wind farm project proposals in areas inhabited by Golden Eagles, whereby the more productive territories are provided with a greater degree of protection than their less productive counterparts.
