Of the described studies, both sites are at-grade with respect to the adjacent highway and one is located behind a sound wall. Based on preliminary comparison between the two cases, air temperature effects may be primarily dependent on distance from the roadway. Wind effects on traffic noise levels show dependence on the presence of a barrier. Results of this analysis are compared to literature.", }
