(1) Lr = Max. Source Level (Loll - TL at range Rz<br />

(2) Lr8 = Leq - TL at rmge Rz + TLref<br />

(3) S/N = Si-1 in hi*est l/3 octave b<strong>and</strong> at range Rz - Smile hient noise level<br />

(4) Ls = 158, Criterion for air gm spectrun<br />

(5) Zarr <strong>of</strong> influwe aromd rwing vessels u y be larger than suggested here if uhales<br />
