METHOD FOR DENYING SOARING AND MIGRATORY BIRDS ACCESS TO CRITICAL AREAS OF AIRPORTS AND AIRCRAFTS

摘要

A method is provided for mitigation of aircraft bird strikes through the provision of conditions on the ground that totally prevents the formation of atmospheric thermals in the proximity of airports and airfields, whereby conflicts between soaring and migratory birds and aircrafts may be avoided. This is accomplished by modification of the topography of the field into a plurality of zones, as described herein and through construction of high albedo pavements, roads, artificial turfs and cool terrains.
