It builds upon the analysis reported in CAP 2161 Survey of Noise Attitudes 2014: Aircraft Noise and Sleep Disturbance.This report expands on the work presented in CAP2161 to estimate the number of night-time additional aircraft noise-induced awakenings for SoNA 2014 residents living in the vicinity of Gatwick, Heathrow and Stansted airports, and to investigate the correlation with each respondent’s self-reported sleep disturbance.The analysis found that LAeq,8h and Lnight do correlate with the number of additional aircraft noise-induced awakenings arising from individual aircraft events at night and the self-reported sleep disturbance results found in the SoNA 2014 survey.
