The right temperatures and wind conditions can bend highway noise like a prism bends light, thwarting roadside sound barriers and plopping sounds as loud as a vacuum cleaner into the yards of residents more than a quarter of a mile away.
These findings were presented today at a meeting of the Acoustical Society of America, by Nick Ovenden of University College, London. He worked with an Arizona team investigating reports by some Scottsdale, Ariz. residents about a third of a mile from the highway who had complained about loud noise, especially during the early morning and dusk hours.
The team took measurements of sound levels, wind speed and direction up to about 1,000 feet and used this information in models of noise that included the prism-like effects of wind and temperature on sound waves.
