This Special Issue on the theme of the New Indicators for the Assessment and Prevention of Noise Nuisance has attracted the interest of authors from all over the world, with the publication of two reviews and two communications, as well as original research papers. Progress has been made in the investigated topic; however, it is still necessary to increase the awareness of the population, both in geographical terms and for workers in specific sectors, such as the marine industry. It emerged that it is essential to carry out future studies that distinguish better between different sound sources with respect to their sound quality in terms of frequency, time pattern (fluctuation, emergence), and psychoacoustic indices, because a differential human reaction to sound sources is increasingly evident. More longitudinal studies are required. However, cross-sectional studies employing a more detailed soundscape description (including background) by competing sound indices are also useful to further the required knowledge to understand the human response in terms of the broad spectrum of potential adverse effects on health and quality of life.Technology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicsscsound emergencelegislationannoyancemeasurementpredictionuncertaintyaudibilitysignal-to-noise ratiosound pressure levelfield measurementsspectrum analysisinterior noise and vibration of vehicleCOVID-19noisesoundscapemetricsindicatorsdescriptorssoundlockdownTwittergeolocationnoise classificationseafarersacoustic pollutionnoise onboard shiphealth impactenvironmental pollutionnoise surveyhypertensionenvironmental noiserailway noiserecreational noiseairport noiseroad traffic noiseblood pressurenoise annoyancediastolic blood pressurehelicopter cabinnoise levelsnoise reductionacoustic evaluationIAR Puma 330ultrasoundactive noise controladjustable PALquiet areasmacro-temporal patternnoise indicatorcognitive performanceStroop tasklistening experimentport noisenoise sourcesnoise mappingnoise mitigationsnoise modelingship noisesustainable managementnoise exposure preventionnoise measurementsresearch projectsnoise indicatorsnoise metricspsychoacousticnuisancesleep disturbancepeak noiseimpulsive eventshealth related quality of lifehealth effectsTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyFredianelli Lucaedt1293299Lercher PeteredtLicitra GaetanoedtFredianelli LucaothLercher PeterothLicitra GaetanoothBOOK9910637791903321New Indicators for the Assessment and Prevention of Noise Nuisance3022536UNINA
