GREEN URBAN AREA AND THE BIODIVERSITY
Introduction Biodiversity was seen as a rather abstract concept until a few decades ago. Later it began to be conceived as a totality of plants and animals, that is, of different species. In this sense, the concepts and definitions related to Biodiversity have evolved over time, reaching a more synthesized, concise and present concept and definition ...

Soundscape of an Urban Green Area of Milan
Proceedings of the 10th Convention of the European Acoustics Association Forum Acusticum 2023Over the last century, anthropogenic activities have caused significant changes in soundscapes. These alterations are mainly caused by growing noise related to the expansion of cities and their connections (e.g. roads). It is urgent to understand the distribution of noise pollution and its effect on biodiversity, especially in large cities, aiming to ...
