Noise attenuation services

Noise attenuation services are the ecosystem contributions to the reduction in the impact of noise on people that mitigates its harmful or stressful effects. This is most commonly a final ecosystem service.

Beneficios:

Reduction of noise

Servicio ecosistémico:

Activos de capital natural:
