Seismic Attenuation Extraction From Traffic Signals Recorded by a Single Seismic Station
Seismic ambient noise contains rich information about the physical properties of the critical zone. From the motor vehicle noise, we extract the daily seismic attenuation by quantifying the linear relationship between the frequency and amplitude ratio of

Fault detection by reflected surface waves based on ambient noise interferometry
Detecting subsurface fault structure is important for evaluating potential earthquake risks associated with active faults. In this study, we propose a new method to detect faults using reflected surface waves observed in ambient noise cross correlation ...

The Effects of Ambient Noise on Vigilance Performance [PDF]
The effects of continuous noise versus intermittent noise on subjects performing an audiovisual checking task were examined. Although there was no difference between the effects of the two kinds of noise on total errors, intermittent noise produced a larger number of omission errors than did continuous noise.

Ambient infrasound noise [PDF]
The ambient infrasound noise environment is characterized for 21 globally distributed infrasound arrays in the frequency band of 0.03 to 7 Hz. Power Spectral Density (PSD) is measured for one site of each array for 21 intervals at each of four times of day from January 2003 through January 2004.

ADVANCING ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE POLLUTION ANALYSIS IN URBAN AREAS BY CONSIDERING THE VARIATION OF POPULATION EXPOSURE IN SPACE AND TIME [PDF]
Ambient noise is a subtle form of pollution in large urban areas, degrading human health and well-being. In Europe, directives require that urban environmental noise be measured and mapped for the main periods of the daily cycle.

Societal Impact of COVID-19 Crisis on the Ambient Seismic Noise in Metropolitan France
The COVID-19 pandemic led to restrictions on human mobility worldwide. In France, numerous phases of lockdowns and curfews were instituted in an attempt to limit the consequences of this pandemic.

Super-resolution DOA estimation based on sparse spectrum fitting
The ambient noise at any two different sensors, in practice, may correlate with each other, and the spatial distribution of ambient noise intensity may be directional because of wind and shipping noise sources. A linear harmonic noise model is considered

Rainfall-induced variations in pore water pressures are the most common sources of significant disasters like landslides, dams’ failure, and other structural collapses. This study aimed at communicating preliminary results of seasonal monitoring of the Sobradinho landslide, Brasilia, Brazil, using ambient seismic noise.
