Abstract
A main way for sound reduction by tree belts is to scatter sound waves by trunks while previous studies of sound absorption by trunks always contain the ground effects. This study aims to examine the difference of reverberation time in different kinds of tree belts through eliminating the influence from ground effect. In order to estimate the scattering of sound waves by trunks, this study investigates sound (Impulse sound) attenuation by three woodlands with same tree species and one woodland with mixed species in the ground with thick snow. The effect of receiver distance from the sound source was also investigated (5 m,10 m and 20m). The results showed that reverberation time can be used to describe the sound propagation over snow cover through tree belts. The reverberation time in different kinds of forests is different, but the variation shows a similar trend with the increase of frequency. The distance between the receiver and sound source affects the reverberation time. The species with higher ability of sound scattering can be used in urban green space to reduce urban noise.
