Urban Noise and Psychological Distress: A Systematic Review. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Environ Res Public Health, 2020
Chronic exposure to urban noise is harmful for auditory perception, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and nervous systems, while also causing psychological annoyance. Around 25% of the EU population experience a deterioration in the quality of life due to annoyance and about 5–15% suffer from sleep disorders, with many disability-adjusted life years ...

Urban Noise Exposure and Cardiometabolic Diseases: An Exploratory Cross-Sectional Study in Lisbon. [PDF]

open access: yesPort J Public Health, 2021
Introduction: Urban noise pollution has been associated with an increased risk of developing metabolic syndrome. Nevertheless, existing observational studies relating to noise exposure and metabolic syndrome are based on non-generalizable cohorts. Lisbon

A Harmonized Data Model for Noise Simulation in the EU

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
This paper presents our implementation of a harmonized data model for noise simulations in the European Union (EU). Different noise assessment methods are used by different EU member states (MS) for estimating noise at local, regional, and national ...

KIMA: Noise: A visual sound installation on urban noise [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Workshops in Computing, 2018
KIMA: Noise is a participatory art piece inviting audiences to explore impact of urban noises interactively. Using specific urban sound sources, the audience experiences noise as spatial soundscapes, responding to it, physically engaging and interacting with it. KIMA: Noise creates awareness for the phenomenon of noise pollution.

Understanding the association between urban noise and nighttime light in China. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
Nighttime light data partially reflects the process of urban modernization and its reaction to urban scale, but its correlation with noise remains unclear, especially over a long-term time series, remains unclear.

Meta-modeling for urban noise mapping

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020
Urban noise mapping generally consists of simulating the emission and attenuation of noise in an area by following rules such as common noise assessment methods. The computational cost makes these models unsuitable for applications such as uncertainty quantification, where thousands of simulations may be required.
