0dB indicates a signal having the same power as the

this case 0dB indicates a signal having an amplitude of 20uPa). Note
that referencing a scale based on power to a pressure level is a
little unnatural, but as long as the base pressure and viscosity are
constant it can be done.
IIRC the brownian motion of air molecules is not so far below 0dB.
