| Description: | Given the substantial and growing scientific and professional literature on soundscapes and night skies and their increasing importance and implications for outdoor recreation, we propose to prepare a paper that integrates and synthesizes this literature. The understanding of these resources, related resources and the effect of noise and artificial light on the environment affects protection of park resources and values. In order to better understand the implications, the literature needs to be collected, reviewed, and summarized. |
