The main objective of this study is to analyze and evaluate road traffic noise in the City of Al-Dammam. Digital sound level meters with frequency weighting networks were used in this study. All measurements were taken on an A weighting frequency network, at a height of about 1.5 m from ground and on a fast range time weighting.
The present study assess spatial change in the land cover over the last decade in Pranahita Wildlife Sanctuary, Adilabad district, Andhra Pradesh, India using Landsat TM and IRS P6 LISS III images.
