Wind turbine noise annoyance – an interdisciplinary three-year field study #DEU

Abstract: Concerns have been raised about the effects of wind turbine (WT) sounds on the well-being of residents. Based on stress psychological models noise annoyance is an indicator connected to well-being. Still there is a lack of interdisciplinary studies observing the impact of noise annoyance on residents over an extended time frame. To understand annoying situations more precisely than previously possible, in a three-year investigation, we analyzed annoyance reports by residents with simultaneous measurements of acoustics, ground motions as well . . .
