Shamal Star Ahmad, Sakar Muhammad Hassan
Currently, noise is considered a part of environmental pollution problems due to increasing factors, sources and negative results, it should be given importance. We obtained some neighborhoods in Ranyia as a sample at different seasons of the year, according to working days, holidays during periods (day, night), and compared the samples with local criteria. We noticed that the noise level residential areas had exceeded the local criteria. However, we found that noise level was different comparing one neighborhood to another one. Having stated that, the highest level observed was in Sara neighborhood in the city center and the lowest level was in Bitwan neighborhood in the outer part of the city. Climatic Influence including seasonal climatic conditions played a significant role in noise level fluctuations. Spring, characterized by more favorable weather, corresponded with increased human activity and mobility, thereby resulting in elevated noise levels. Conversely, winter conditions were associated with reduced outdoor activity, leading to a notable decline in noise levels. At the end of our research, we have come to find that in order to stop noise pollution levels and their impacts from getting worse and to help lower them, we have come up with several suggestions, such as raising awareness among people, monitoring and enforcing noise laws and rules.
