Air Departure Tax reduction in Scotland: noise impact assessment

Appendix C. Noise contour plots

C.1.1. Noise contour plots showing the results of aircraft noise modelling along with the distribution of population in the area around each airport are presented within this appendix. There are two noise contour plots presented for each modelled scenario to account for daytime L_Aeq,16h and night-time L_Aeq,8h aircraft noise. The noise contour plots are listed as follows:

• Figure C.1 to C.10 (pages 61 to 70) compare baseline 2017 to baseline 2022 for each of the five airports;
• Figure C.11 to Figure C.22 (pages 71 to 82) present each of the future modelled scenarios at Aberdeen Airport;
• Figure C.23 to Figure C.34 (pages 83 to 94) present each of the future modelled scenarios at Edinburgh Airport;
• Figure C.35 to Figure C.46 (pages 95 to 106) present each of the future modelled scenarios at Glasgow Airport; and
• Figure C.47 to Figure C.58 (pages 107 to 118) present each of the future modelled scenarios at Prestwick Airport.
