Basic Information News Current research Past research Publications Informationen für die breite Öffentlichkeit	Classical sound indicators (LAeq, Lden) do not consider the temporal structure or the frequency components of the specific sound. Thus, only the intensity of the sound sources is covered. This is a serious shortcoming when potential health effects of sounds are assessed as the induced stress response by various sounds varies a lot. The main aim of this project and associated activities is to examine and promote the use of alternative sound indicators in different environmental contexts (indoor, outdoor, recration). link to project outline Current projects Psychoacoustic assessment of tramway noise in Graz Lärmarme Haustechnik- - Silent energy efficient homes Exposure-response analyses for WHO-evidence based reviews" ->not yet publicly availabe
