Manuela M Huso
I am a Research Statistician Emerita with the USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center in Corvallis, OR.
I have a courtesy faculty appointment in the Department of Statistics at Oregon State University (OSU). Before coming to the USGS, I spent more than 20 years as a consulting statistician at OSU.
Science and Products
Wind Energy and Wildlife Team (FRESC)
FRESC's Wind Energy and Wildlife Team is lead by Manuela Huso. She and her team are involved in design and analysis of post-construction fatality monitoring studies as well as deterrent and curtailment studies at several wind-power generation facilities.
Improving fatality estimates at wind energy facilities
The density-weighted proportion--or dwp--R software package improves estimates of total bird and bat fatalities at wind energy facilities by accounting for the fraction of carcasses that fall outside the searched area.
A Generalized Estimator for Estimating Bird and Bat Mortality at Renewable Energy Facilities - GenEst
GenEst - One estimator for accurate bird and bat fatality estimates
Statistical Tools for Wind and Solar Energy Development and Operations
Solar and wind power development is increasing exponentially in the United States. However, these energy sources may affect wildlife, either directly from collisions with the turbine blades or photovoltaic arrays or indirectly from loss of habitat and migration routes. An important component to understanding the effects of these renewable energy projects on wildlife is accurate and precise...

Effects of Wind and Solar Energy Development on Wildlife
This research theme informs adaptive management and siting decsions in relation to bats at wind and solar power-generation facilities.
Applied Statistical Methods and Tools
This research theme addresses several issues important in deriving accurate and precise estimates of fatality at wind and solar power-generation facilities.
