Abstract

Noise generated by air traffic is one of the leading problems in urban areas in the world. That is why the measures for reducing the noise generated by air traffic are today the subject of constant improvement, extensive research, and standardization. Monitoring and predicting air traffic noise levels represent an important factor in quality control and noise management. In order to reduce the noise level in the vicinity of Mitiga International Airport (Tripoli) in Libya, the aim of this paper is to assess the noise emission levels before and after the introduction of certain measures to reduce airborne noise, as well as to predict the noise level at the analyzed area. The method of interpolation in the Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to graphically represent the spatial distribution of noise emissions in the study area, and by applying zonal statistics deviations from the allowable values for each control grid were calculated. The obtained results showed that the application of certain measures has a great impact on reducing noise levels on controlled grids. Finally, the reliability of noise level prediction was successfully assessed using the artificial neural network (ANN) method.

利比亚的黎波里米提加国际机场空中交通噪声的评估和预测

空中交通产生的噪音是世界城市地区的主要问题之一。因此，减少空中交通噪音的措施是当今不断改进、广泛研究和标准化的主题。监测和预测空中交通噪声水平是质量控制和噪声管理的一个重要因素。为了降低利比亚米提加国际机场（的黎波里）附近的噪声水平，本文旨在评估在采取某些措施降低空中噪声前后的噪声排放水平，并预测分析区域的噪声水平。本文使用地理信息系统（GIS）中的插值方法，以图形表示研究区域内噪声排放的空间分布，并通过应用分区统计计算出每个控制网格与允许值的偏差。结果表明，采取某些措施对降低控制网格的噪声水平有很大影响。最后，利用人工神经网络（ANN）方法成功评估了噪声水平预测的可靠性。

期刊介绍： One of the most important challenges facing the contemporary scientific world are problems connected with environmental protection. Intensive development of industry and agriculture has led to a rise in living standards on one hand, but an increase in environmental degradation on the other. This degradation poses a direct threat to human health and life. Solving these ever-increasing problems which seriously endanger our civilization require the united efforts of scientists and field researchers of many branches. The "Polish Journal of Environmental Studies" publishes original papers and critical reviews on the following subjects: -Basic and applied environmental pollution research, including environmental engineering -Pollution control of atmospheric, water (marine and fresh), soil and biological materials -Determination of harmful substances, including their metabolic breakdown patterns -Analytical methods for metabolic breakdown patterns or other chemical degradation patterns in the environment and in biological samples -Development of new analytical methods, instruments and techniques for controlling pollutants -Circulation of pollutants in the environment and their effect on living organisms -Environmentally oriented catalysis -Hazards to human health and safety -Waste utilization and management -Land reclamation -Conference reports, scientific and technical reports and book reviews
