Re:Turbine “torture” for Greek islanders as wind farms proli... by theshrike79 on Friday February 11, 2022 @11:16AM (#30303158)
Wind doesn't pulse at exactly 1Hz for weeks, it also doesn't carry the same frequency over tens of kilometers. [0]

It's easy to handle anything for a while, like a crying child during a 30 minute bus ride. But when the same noise is extended over a 14 hour flight with no way to escape, you'll start to feel it.

Some people handle auditory interruptions better than others. Infrasound, to my knowledge, hasn't been really studied in a cross-field type of way. It's always just engineers doing measurements with meters and drawing graphs. There are very few studies on the psychological effects of man-made infrasound.
