| 11 | )))|(% style="width:730px" %)The PAI describes the following health effects from the acoustic indicator LDEN and thus the night noise level in urban areas (dB). The day-evening-night–level indicator (LDEN) designed to assess annoyance. LDEN is the average sound pressure level over all days, evenings and nights in a year. In this compound indicator the evening value gets a penalty of 5 dB and the night value of 10 dB. This is the 'general purpose' indicator defined in EU-directive 2002/49. European threshold LDEN: High Noise level: 55 decibels (dB) (EEA, 2014). PAI is a derived indicator regarding health effects of noise on exposed population and is linked to LD, LN and LDEN | ||
