Detection, measurement and monitoring of environmental pollution are considered as one of the decision basics in the environmental management. Principle planning for solving environmental problems is not possible without reliance to assured measurement with the help of new and powerful systems in monitoring. In this regard the noise pollution of airports is of great importance. In this paper by using device analysis method and utilizing a calibrated sound level meter device, sources of noise pollution recognition, noise and sound pressure level measurement, evaluation and comparison of them with environmental standards, and airside control actions of the Imam Khomeini international airport have been performed and it was showed, that the runway, ground safety and the dock have been respectively the main pollutants, so that noise pollution in the Apron area and runway at night have been 80.7% more than Iran standards and the ground safety site while alarm broadcasting has been 53.1% at daytime and 61.1% at night more than standards and these values for Dock has been 20.88% and also the value of noise pollutants in water refinery sites, watchtower, taxi parking and pilgrim terminals have met standards. Finally some solutions against noise pollution have been proposed.

The objective of this paper is to examine the effect of aircraft noise on residential property price within the case study area, and the main focus of this research was the distance of selected residential housed from Kuching International Airport (KIA). Aircraft noise is a source of noise pollution and act as environment factor that affect the house prices. Environmental disamenities from water and noise pollution will caused the houses to sell at lower price, accounted 20.8% less than houses located in area without noise interference. Apparently, the noise produced by the aircraft has even larger negative impact on house prices as compared to road traffic noise and railway noise. This study adopted quantitative approach in answering the objective of the paper. The findings were based on the secondary data which including 210 property transaction data within year 2015. The range of areas for this study was limited to selected residential terrace houses that located within 10.0 km from Kuching International Airport (KIA). The findings from Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) shows that the property prices located nearer to the airport (<2.5 km from KIA) in selected case study areas have been sold with lower price. Moreover, the prices of the properties located distance from KIA were not negatively impacted by the aircraft noise due to the other pulling factor that has larger impact to the property. Indeed, the location of the property, public amenities, transportation system, neighborhood factor and facilities also has close relationship to the property price.

The Debrecen International Airport has been undergoing a significant transformation regarding to the growth of traffic and its composition. Considering the dwelling zone location of the airport we cannot avoid the possible noise pollution that it may cause, since its permanency, and growth of intensity, could be the reason of durable health deficiency. The airports’ noise pollution zones are determined, and classified by domestic, and international regulations, the measured data of the noise monitoring system, and the content of the air traffic regarding to the type of planes. Summoning all of these we recommend the D zone qualification of the airport, and the traffic daylight restriction referring to the S5 type of planes. We also advise to build up a more sophisticated and wider extended noise monitoring system.

<p>Recognizing the need to assess the impact of noise pollution in vulnerable locations such as the subdivisions in close proximity to the airport, the researchers conducted a survey to characterize how aircraft noise affects the everyday lives of the residents within the perimeter of Francisco Bangoy International Airport of Davao City. Specifically, the investigation determined the levels of aviation noise intensities in dB(A) in four subdivisions surrounding the airport. Moreover, the degrees of effect as regards disturbance of resting time, health, communication, mood, and need for noise abatement of the respondents in the places were also measured. The digital sound level meter was used to measure the aviation noise intensities while a validated researchermade questionnaire was utilized to collect data to characterize many aspects of aviation noiseeffects. Four hundred respondents were randomly chosen from the identified subdivisions. Chi-square test was used to establish the degree of association between the level of aviation noise and its effect. Findings revealed that the noise levels are within 40-60 dB (A) for relatively distant places and 90-110 dB (A) in areas very near the airport. Many aspects of aviation noise have affected the lives of the inhabitants. There was a significant association between the level of aviation noise and the extent of its effect.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Social Science, environmental engineering, aviation noise, inhabitants, noise effects, descriptive survey, Davao City, Philippines</p>
