The objective of this study is to exploit the recent advances in machine learn-88 ing to investigate the trends in PM 10 in Moranbah and assess the impact of 89 changes in local industrial actions on air quality using open-access datasets 90 and techniques. The secondary intent is to establish a methodology for this meteorological 95 normalisation that accounts for the influence of nearby fires, which are an 96 important source of particulate matter in the Australian dry season, as well 97 as other environmental factors such as soil water content. ./cache/cord-329414-zueqafmn.txt ./txt/cord-329414-zueqafmn.txt
