  2. Ionospheric sounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionospheric_sounding

    In telecommunications and radio science, an ionospheric sounding is a technique that provides real-time data on high-frequency ionospheric-dependent radio propagation, using a basic system consisting of a synchronized transmitter and receiver.

  3. Plasma speaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_speaker

    The plasma arc heats the surrounding air causing it to expand. Varying the electrical signal that drives the plasma and connected to the output of an audio amplifier, the plasma size varies which in turn varies the expansion of the surrounding air creating sound waves. [1]

  4. Noise pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_pollution

    The sound created by the crossing of boats and ships overlaps with the natural sounds of the coral reef organisms. This pollution impacts the various organisms inhabiting the coral reefs in different ways, and ultimately damages the capabilities of the reef and may cause permanent deterioration. [88]

  5. Ionosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionosphere

    Relationship of the atmosphere and ionosphere. The ionosphere (/ aɪ ˈ ɒ n ə ˌ s f ɪər /) [1] [2] is the ionized part of the upper atmosphere of Earth, from about 48 km (30 mi) to 965 km (600 mi) above sea level, [3] a region that includes the thermosphere and parts of the mesosphere and exosphere. The ionosphere is ionized by solar ...

  6. Ambient noise level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_noise_level

    Integrating Sound Level Meter. In atmospheric sounding and noise pollution, ambient noise level (sometimes called background noise level, reference sound level, or room noise level) is the background sound pressure level at a given location, normally specified as a reference level to study a new intrusive sound source. [1]

  7. Environmentalism in music - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmentalism_in_music

    Environmental themes in music have ranged from an appreciation of nature and wilderness and advocating for its protection, to environmental degradation, pollution and climate change. The earliest popular music exploring environmentalist topics can be traced back to the 19th century and early folk, gospel and blues music.

  8. Noise measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_measurement

    When sound levels reach a high enough intensity, the sound, whether it is wanted or unwanted, may be damaging to hearing. [3] Environmental noise monitoring is the measurement of noise in an outdoor environment caused by transport (e.g. motor vehicles, aircraft, and trains), industry (e.g. machines) and recreational activities (e.g. music).

  9. Acoustic ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_ecology

    The World Forum for Acoustic Ecology is an international collective of people and organizations who study the world's soundscapes. [6] There are eight groups that make up the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology: the Australian Forum for Acoustic Ecology, the Canadian Association for Acoustic Ecology, the Finnish Society for Acoustic Ecology, the Hellenic Society for Acoustic Ecology, the Japanese ...
