Road, tram and aircraft traffic noise annoyance related to the number of noise events and the equivalent sound level [PDF]

Archives of Acoustics, 2022
Noise mapping is based on long-term noise indicators, such as L N or L DEN. On the other hand, transportation intensity changes during a day (road traffic peak hours) or a year (more flights during holidays) and this variability is not reflected in ...

Association between exposure to multiple air pollutants, transportation noise and cause-specific mortality in adults in Switzerland

Environmental Health, 2023
Background Long-term exposure to air pollution and noise is detrimental to health; but studies that evaluated both remain limited. This study explores associations with natural and cause-specific mortality for a range of air pollutants and transportation

Sozialräumliche Unterschiede im Engagement älterer Großstadtbewohner gegen Verkehrslärm? Schlussfolgerungen für eine verteilungs- und verfahrensgerechte Lärmaktionsplanung

Raumforschung und Raumordnung, 2023
Exposure to transportation noise is a highly prevalent health burden in urban areas. Social-spatially unequal distributions of transportation noise exposure can contribute to health inequalities (distributional environmental justice).

The independent association of source-specific transportation noise exposure, noise annoyance and noise sensitivity with health-related quality of life

Environment International, 2020
Noise exposure is affecting health-related quality of life (HRQoL). There are many modelling approaches linking specific noise sources with single health-related outcomes.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MEASURED TRAFFIC NOISE IN KLANG VALLEY, MALAYSIA AND EXISTING PREDICTION MODELS [PDF]

Engineering Heritage Journal, 2018
Many road traffic noise models are available around the world. However, these models cannot be simply generalized because local conditions affecting such noise (e.g., vehicle type and weather) vary from one locality to another. Two traffic noise models
