Micro and Nanostructural Diversity of Lizard Osteoderm Capping Tissue in Relation to Mechanical Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that lizard osteoderm capping tissue is a hyper‐mineralized hydroxyapatite layer consistently covering the superficial osteoderm surface in those species studied here, yet it varies greatly in morphology, nanostructure, and mechanical performance across species.

Environmental Noise

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2021
This session will introduce participants to the principles of measurement, analysis, and control of environmental noise. Topics will include the selection and operation of sound level meters, statistical descriptors, ordinances and regulations, standards, propagation modeling, and sound barrier applications. No prior experience with environmental noise

Environmental Noise

2003
Abstract Noise contamination can be defined quite simply as unwanted sound. At high sound pressure levels it can cause temporary and/or permanent losses in our capacity to hear and/or understand speech and in our ability to hear and enjoy music. At lower sound pressure levels it can still be a significant environmental sensory stress.

Environmental Noise

American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 1998
The effects of environmental noise were estimated from automatic computer-assisted analyses of voice samples. Signals consisted of a live voice sample and a synthesized triangular waveform. Noise was generated from a personal computer fan. Six different A-weighted signal-to-noise [S/N(A)] conditions were created for the live voice and synthetic signal—

Environmental noise induces the release of stress hormones and inflammatory signaling molecules leading to oxidative stress and vascular dysfunction—Signatures of the internal exposome

Biofactors, 2019
Environmental noise is a well‐recognized health risk and part of the external exposome—the World Health Organization estimates that 1 million healthy life years are lost annually in Western Europe alone due to noise‐related complications, including ...

Environmental noise monitor

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1974
An environmental noise monitor has been designed, constructed, and tested for the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency. The system includes a Brüel & Kjaer 4921 outdoor microphone system, a Wang 600-14 computing calculator as the digital controller and statistical analyzer, and a Nagra SJ tape recorder for analog recording.
