Short summary
We determined δ15N(NO3) and Δ17O(NO3) of PM2.5 in Seoul during 2018–2019 and estimated quantitatively the contribution of oxidation pathways to NO3 formation and NOx emission sources. The nighttime pathway played a significant role in NO3 formation during the winter, and its contribution further increased up to 70 % on haze days when PM2.5 was greater than 75 µg m−3. Vehicle emissions were confirmed as a main NO3 source with an increasing contribution from coal combustion in winter.
