Implications of our research● Characterize urban noise in spectral and temporal domains.● Extract specific event acoustic signatures.● Assess the ability to detect specific events that could potentially be
harmful in urban and maritime environments.

What is dBA?● dBA is the resulting unit of sound
pressure level after the A-Weighting has been applied.
●● This process of weighting different
frequencies results in a unit that is more representative of the perception of human hearing.

Determining Calibration● Microphones convert Pascals from
sound to Volts to be recorded as signal.
● The Pressure Calibration Factor was used to correct all microphone Sound Pressure Level readings to be in line with the Digital Sound Level Meter.
