Abstract


Air quality has emerged as a critical factor influencing public health, environmental sustainability, and economic development. This study investigates the spatial and temporal variations of air quality, focusing on key pollutants such as PM2.5, PM10, NO2, SO2, and ozone across urban, suburban, and rural settings. Utilizing advanced monitoring technologies and machine learning algorithms, we analyse extensive datasets to identify sources of pollution and assess their impacts on human health and ecosystem stability. Findings reveal a significant correlation between industrial activities and elevated pollutant levels, with urban areas experiencing the highest concentrations. SPSS is used to associate a phenomenon with multiple factors through the optimal combination of multiple independent variables. Study evaluates the effectiveness of air quality management policies, proposing actionable strategies to mitigate pollution, including the adoption of cleaner technologies, stricter emissions standards, and enhanced public awareness. This study encompasses advanced methods and insight-based data towards air pollution that can influence regulatory action. When tackling the issue of air pollution, the study highlights that only through the use of multidisciplinary approaches can we take steps to achieve cleaner air and enhance the quality of life from generation to generation.
