Angewandte Akustik, 213, Article 109650. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2023.109650

Earlier studies suggested that sound preferences or soundscape quality could be improved by augmenting the acoustic environment originally dominated by road traffic noise by birdsong or water sound. However, little has been known on whether and how t...
