The bar graphdepictsthe total number of people disturbed by various types of noise pollution during the daytime and nighttime in the year 2007. We can observe that more people in the cities were affected by noise pollution than thoseresidingin the countryside in 2007. The main source...

Compared to birds, little research has been undertaken with bats to disentangle the impact of traffic noise from overall effects, which could include a combination of light, sound and air pollution as well as habitat changes (e.g. Berthinussen and Altringham, 2012; Claireau et al., 2019;...
Active mobility and public transport are considered beneficial for health and wellbeing and valuable for climate change mitigation. However, cyclists and pedestrians have high air pollution and noise exposure alongside traffic, which adversely impact hea

For example, a study in Leipzig, Germany, showed that over 80% of the surveyed cyclists underes- timated their exposure to particulate matter and noise pollution [19]. When people are exposed to noise over a longer period of time they adapt to it and the annoy- ance decreases [21]. A...
Background: A major source of noise pollution is traffic. In Germany, the SARS-CoV-2 lockdown caused a substantial decrease in mobility, possibly affecting noise levels. The aim is to analyze the effects of the lockdown measures on noise levels in the densely populated Ruhr Area. We focus ...
Noise pollution is one of the topmost quality of life issues for urban residents in the United States. Continued exposure to high levels of noise has proven effects on health, including acute effects such as sleep disruption, and long-term effects such as hypertension, heart disease, and hearing...
