The monitoring of boundary noise levels in urban locations has become a high priority over recent years. Background noise levels in these environments are potentially already high. New developments in these locations threaten to increase noise levels even further and affect nearby residents. This is where the phrase urban noise monitoring becomes useful.
The Silence of the Lambs – A Noise Monitoring Case Study
The sound of new-born lambs bleating is something that most people would be happy to wake up to on a Spring morning – or perhaps not? Learn how Acoustic Consultant Louise Alderson approached this livestock noise monitoring project with help from Cirrus Environmental.
What is Long Term Noise Monitoring?
It might sound simple, but long term noise monitoring can mean different things to different people. There is no standard definition for what long term noise monitoring is, but here is a summary that covers the basics.
BS4142 Noise Impact Guidelines Are Beefed Up
There has been an interesting update come across my desk this week relating to the BS4142 noise impact guidelines. Now, that may not sound the most exciting update in the world but for anyone who works in environmental noise, planning or development they need to sit up and take note.
Permanent Noise Monitoring of an Industrial Power Station
Cirrus Environmental has a long association with Eggborough Power Station. Here is a case study on how we recently provided a permanent noise monitoring solution.
