A study of noise pollution at six location by the month of Jun 2009 in Sulaimani city of Kurdistan region was conducted; Data on the intensity of noise during two different intervals of time 10 (am) and 17 (pm) were collected using a digital sound level meter with arrange of (34-130) dB. The source of must noise is transportation system, vehicles, car alarms, emergency services sirens, loudspeakers, construction works and noisy people. Because of the direct links between noise and health, the establishment of an agency under the name of Kurdistan Environmental Protection Agency (KEPA) is impor

Abstract The term Movida takes its name from the evening and night life of the city for their liveliness and animation. During the Movida, noise is one of the problems in the city centers due to the negative effects on the resident population.

Along the roads affected by the Movida phenomenon, the values of sound levels in dBA were measured both with fixed stations with a sound level meter and with mobile stations by wearing a noise dosimeter a participant of Movida.

Abstract:

Anthropogenic noise imposes novel selection pressures, especially on species that communicate acoustically. Many animals—including insects, frogs, whales and birds—produce sounds at higher frequencies in areas with low-frequency noise pollution. Although there is support for animals changing their vocalizations in real time in response to noise (i.e. immediate flexibility), other evolutionary mechanisms for animals that learn their vocalizations remain largely unexplored. We hypothesize that cultural selection for signal structures less masked by noise is a mechanism of acoustic adaptation to

Abstract The paper discusses noise mapping from the prospective of general evaluation of the state of the city environment. Suggested is a noise evaluation procedure based on a two-step spatial discretization - coarse and fine grids. The coarse grid is used for evaluation of average noise levels (background noise). For this, rather simple method is proposed, where average noise levels are estimated directly for the whole coarse grid cells instead of averaging the noise levels computed point-wise. The fine grid is used for finding the obstacle density to apply in calculations over the coarse gr

Abstract:

Urban green spaces are intended to provide citizens with calm environments free of annoying city noises. This requires a thorough understanding of noise emission and related exposure to sounds in green spaces. This research investigates noise perception in various spots in an urban green space. For this purpose, the study has been conducted in the grand garden of the city of Dresden. The garden covers 1.8 square kilometers of various landscapes, including water streams, park railways, fountains, bridges, roads for bicycles and pedestrians etc. Noise perception was investigated at eleven spots

Abstract:

Chittagong, the port city of Bangladesh, is one of the nosiest cities of the country. Extreme noise is very inimical for human health and environment. Noise pollution implies a discomfort and restlessness caused to humans by unwanted high intensity sound. Motorized traffic is one of the major sources of producing noise in Chittagong city. The present paper deals with determining the level of the noise pollution in Chittagong city area and its impact on city dwellers. In this study noise levels have been measured with digital sound level meter at eight different places of Chittagong city from 6

Objective Dessie is the trade center for northeast Ethiopia. High traffic flow plus overacting of promotion made the city noisy. There is a shortage of relevant evidence that enforces policy makers to design intervention plans. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the health-risky road traffic noise pollution in Dessie City, Ethiopia. Methods The study was conducted by purposive selection of the study area and sampling sites of the city from May 31, 2021 –June 6, 2021. Noise level recordings were taken by a digital Sound Meter and location data was collected by Global Positioning System. Res

Abstract:

Transportation sector is one of the major contributors to noise in urban areas. Hence, as a first step towards assessment of noise pollution, measurement was taken up with emphasis on traffic noise. During the course of study ten heavy to medium busy commercial corridors were selected for monitoring of vehicular traffic activities and ambient noise levels as well. Sound Level Meter (SLM) SC-30 with a calibration source was used for measurement of equivalent noise levels.The results indicates that the noise levels were higher than the limits prescribed by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB),

Noise pollution in urban areas of many countries in the world is a widespread problem and now worldwide recognizes it as a major problem for the quality of life in urban areas. Road traffic, industrial and production units and construction machinery are the causes of urban noise pollution. Behbahan city is one of the most populous Khuzestan cities in Iran. Assessment of noise pollution in Behbahan city was performed by seven stations as indicators and a station as a witness of commercial-residential areas.

Abstract One of the adverse effects of industrialization is noise pollution, which disturbs the mental health and tranquility of urban residents and is the source of numerous social tensions. Twenty stations in the central areas of Almaty with varying uses during the morning, afternoon, and evening rush hours were measured for this study. The objectives of this paper include determining sound indices, identifying potential sound sources, and calculating the relative contribution of each to the overall urban noise level. Additionally, 400 questionnaires were distributed to individuals to assess

Abstract:

Statistical models that can generate a road-traffic noise map for a city or area where only elementary urban design factors are determined, and where no concrete urban morphology, including buildings and roads, is given, can provide basic but essential information for developing a quiet and sustainable city. Long-term cost-effective measures for a quiet urban area can be considered at early city planning stages by using the statistical road-traffic noise map. An artificial neural network (ANN) and an ordinary least squares (OLS) model were developed by utilizing data on urban form indicators,

Abstract COVID-19 has affected people’s lives in different ways from reduced mobility and staying-at-home orders to other daily life routines. These changes have, in turn, affected the quality of life in urban environments including air quality and noise. The noise aspect, for example, suggests quieter environments due to fewer vehicles on streets, and less human activities. On the other hand, staying at home may cause more activities happening at the building level, i.e., more people in buildings may make more noise for neighbors. In order to understand this nexus, the study examines the nois

The study was conducted in 4 industries, 4 bus stands and 3 hospitals/clinics through interviewing of workers, staffs of the industries and traffic polices, drivers, passersby, road nearest shopkeepers and patients, nurses, staffs, doctors and other peoples of the medical institutes. Environmental multi-function meter was used to measure the noise intensity (dB) as instrumental survey. From the study it was found that in the industrial sector minimum noise level was 84.71 dB and maximum noise level was 105 dB, in the hospitals/clinics minimum noise level was 75 dB and maximum noise level was 8
