Ten scientific institutes participated (2011-2015) and performed surveys, secondary health data analyses, sleep quality registrations, blood pressure registrations, and special tests on children at school. Most of the sub-studies used address-specific noise exposure calculations of different reference times for air, road, and rail traffic. The presentation informs about the aims of the commissioners, the main research questions, the scientific quality control, and the general designs of the sub-studies.", }
