INTRODUCTION Taxonomy and Nomenclature Assessment of soundscapes, basic definitions, an attempt to standardize Soundscape nomenclature in various languages and disciplines International standards relevant for soundscape studies From Sonic Environment to Soundscape Listening Auditory Scene Analysis The role of multisensory attention How sounds get meaning Appraisal and quality judgment in a socio-cultural context A holistic model for soundscape How soundscape theory can affect practice Human Restoration and Quality Of Life: The Role of High Acoustic Quality Introduction The review: Method Results Conclusions Impact of Soundscape in Terms of Perception The holistic in soundscape Methods to balance the acoustics in the living environment Participation as the leading construct Outline of studies for urban areas: overview and outcomes Discussion regarding a guideline for future noise studies Indicators to be obtained for political input Perceived Soundscapes in Relation to Transport Related Annoyance, Context and Personal Characteristics Case Studies The need for the integration of different scale levels in soundscape health and quality of life studies Large scale health and quality of life studies (Schiphol & National neighbourhood study) Medium to smaller scales health and quality of life studies (BBT & ALPNAP) Future perspective Human Hearing-Related Measurement And Analysis Of Acoustic Environments - Requisite For Soundscape Investigations Measurement Equipment Measurement Conditions and Specifications Analysis of Acoustic Environments by means of Psychoacoustics Characterization of Soundscapes Mapping of Soundscape Noise mapping Sound mapping Soundscape mapping based on ANN Mind mapping to psychoacoustic alternatives Soundscape topography Procedures and techniques for identification of sound components Approaches to Urban Soundscape Management, Planning, and Design Introduction Outdoors soundscape concept Soundscape approach vs noise control approach Soundscape management in new urban projects Soundscape planning and design Conclusions Soundscape As Part of the Cultural and Natural Heritage Introduction Multi-sensorial appreciation of cultural and natural heritage Soundscape as intangible trademark: recognition's techniques Tools for the Soundscape safeguard Applications Historical towns Archaeological parks Natural parks Festivals Applied Soundscape Practices Purpose-designed soundscape projects Other projects achieving good soundscape quality Examples of soundscape practice in policy Potential policy applications of soundscape principles Methods of soundscape modification Priorities for soundscape intervention Improving future soundscape practices BIBLIOGRAPHY
