abstract = "This portion of the Tutorial on Sound Level Meters discusses practical tips for deploying a sound level meter and preparing for measurements. The practical tips include best practices for calibrating a sound level meter system, both in terms of keeping it field-ready and for use in
the field prior to and after data collection. The use of wind screens-when it's necessary and helpful-is also discussed. Other practical tips include how to orient your sound level meter/microphone in relation to your sound source and holding or tripod-mounting your system. Also, sound level
meter settings both before and during field deployment are discussed, along with consideration of background noise.",
