Noise mitigation action plan of Pisa civil and military airport and its effects on people exposure
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Integrated Noise Model (INM) to estimate the noise impact produced by the Galileo Galilei airport and evaluated the related exposed population by using the noise power levels of both commercial and military flights.

Modeling of noise pollution and estimated human exposure around İstanbul Atatürk Airport in Turkey.
TL;DR: It was found that 1.2% of the land area of İstanbul City exceeds the threshold of 55dB(A) during daytime, however, when the exceedance of threshold of 65dB( A)is investigated, the affected area is found quite small (0.2%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating urban land cover change in the Hurghada area, Egypt, by using GIS and remote sensing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used data from three satellite datasets, Landsat Thematic Mapper (Landsat 5 TM), Landsat Enhanced Thematic Map Plus (Llandsat 7 ETM+) and Terra/Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), acquired during 1987, 2000 and 2005, respectively, to detect and evaluate Hurghada's urban expansion.
A critical examination of an airport noise mitigation scheme and an aircraft noise charge: the case of capacity expansion and externalities at sydney (kingsford smith) airport
Giovanni Nero,John Black +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the implications of new environmental policies in conjunction with airline deregulation and change in the airport infrastructure are examined, focusing on the specifics of Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport, and broader policy issues likely to be relevant for other major airports around the world are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of airport noise impacts on public health. A case study of Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the SoundPLAN 7.2 software according to the European Noise Directive, and the ECAC Doc. 29-Interim method was applied for the computation of the aircraft noise.

Aviation and externalities: the accomplishments and problems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the impacts of civil aviation on the environment, and illustrate how a sustainable development of the sector is attempted to be achieved through management of the system's noise, air pollution and safety side effects.

Aircraft noise social cost and charge mechanisms – a case study of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol
Peter Morrell,Cherie Lu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hedonic price method is applied to calculate the annual social cost of aircraft noise during the landing and take-off stages of the flight and the empirical results, using Amsterdam Airport Schiphol as the case study, show that the current noise charge level imposed by the Dutch Government is lower than the actual noise social cost resulting from aircraft movements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generic and site-specific criteria in the optimization of noise abatement trajectories
TL;DR: A trade-off study is presented using a recently developed tool for the analysis and design of noise abatement procedures around airports that combines a noise model, a geographic information system, and a dynamic trajectory optimization algorithm to provide insight into the sensitivities in the multi-objective noise performance trade-offs.

Noise pollution associated with the operation of the dar es salaam international airport
Rubhera R.A.M Mato,T.S Mufuruki +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the noise impacts associated with the operation of the Dar es Salaam International Airport (DIA) in Tanzania and found that noise levels in the surrounding settlements of Kipawa and Kiwalani were higher than the WHO recommended limits and causing annoyance to residents.

Complaints caused by aircraft operations: an assessment of annoyance by noise level and time of day
TL;DR: The impact of aircraft movements on the local community surrounding an international airport was investigated using airport data on complaints, noise monitoring, aircraft flight paths and movements to assess annoyance due to noise level and time-of-day as mentioned in this paper.
