Forty-six air monitoring stations were grouped into 6 rural and urban regional areas. Linear regression models examined pollution levels in association with rural and urban regions and meteorological covariates. Results: Findings show that daily mean pollutant levels in the rural Upper Hunter were the highest of all regions, and were significantly higher than metropolitan Sydney, with and without control for weather conditions, for every pollutant. For example, daily mean PM2.5 was 8.64 µg/m³ in the rural Upper Hunter, compared to 7.23 μg/m³ in metropolitan Sydney. Conclusions: Results highlight the need to consider both urban and rural sources of pollution in air quality studies, and appropriate policy steps to address likely rural air pollution from coal mining.]]> Thu 21 Jul 2022 09:48:20 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20258 Thu 01 Aug 2019 17:13:04 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28569 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:35:50 AEDT ]]>
