Environmental and health impacts (particulate matter and noise) of airport infrastructure upgrading: Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2

The paper studies the environmental impacts of airport expansion of Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 (KLIA2). Some of significant environmental concerns in airports growth are noise and air quality. Several airborne particulate matter samplers and sound level meter used to record both noise an...
