The impact to wildlife will be tightly correlated to the biodiversity of the land on which the power plant is built. Biodiversity, as measured by species density, is documented most thoroughly by the recent Millennium Ecosystem Assessment [29], which ranked biodiversity in the world’s biomes from greatest to least as follows: tropical rainforests, tropical grasslands, deserts and xericshrublands, tropical/sub-tropical dry broadleaf forests, montane grasslands and shrublands, temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, flooded grasslands and savannas, tropical coniferous forests, temperate coniferous forests, Mediterranean forests and scrublands, boreal forests, and lastly tundra [29]. For our current paper we use fewer numbers of biomes, which are ranked from greatest to least biodiversity as follows: forests, grasslands, desert shrublands, and true deserts. Sunlight and water availability can significantly alter the biodiversity in any of these biomes, by a factor of two, and endangered species can live in any biome. Consequently, a customized study of the wildlife and ecosystem surrounding each power plant is recommended as a best practice.
