Health | This may imply that impulse noise above a certain critical level results in acoustic trauma from which the ear cannot recover. (references) | |
Generally, for sound levels below about 140 dB, different temporal forms of sound, whether impulse (gunshot), impact (drop forge) or steady state (turbine), when specified with respect to their level and duration, produce the same hearing loss. This does not appear to follow at levels above 140 dB, where impulse noise creates more damage than would be predicted. (references) | ||
