Abstract. The results of data analysis obtained in the instrumental observations for acoustics oscillations in Moscow in the period of 2014–2017 are considered. Distinction of acoustic noise  amplitude and spectral characteristics between territory of megalopolis and outside them are demonstrated. Obtained data testify to increase acoustic noise during hurricanes and squalls. Peculiarities of the infrasound oscillations and acoustic-gravitational waves are considered separately.

Keywords: megalopolis, biotope, acoustic oscillations, infrasound, acoustic-gravitational waves.
