Developing a multivariate model for predicting the noise annoyance responses due to combined water sound and road traffic noise exposure

People in an urban environment are exposed to different types of natural and man-made sounds. Human sound perceptions due to exposure to a single noise source, in particular road traffic and aircraft noises, have been investigated for a long time. However, only very few studies have been focused on exposure to a combination of sound sources. Also, there is a lack of multivariate models that can help to predict the preferences or annoyance...
