Comprehensive PM 2.5 source profiles were established for 34 sub-types of sources, with markers and diagnostic ratios updated. OC, EC, SO 4 2 − , NO 3 − , Si, Al, Mg, Ca, Ti, and Fe were dominant species. The maize straw, wheat straw, honeycomb coal burning, firework burning, barbeque and cooking are expected to be separated by receptor modeling. EC, Ca, Fe, and Mg can trace nearly all sources. New markers were identified, like Ti, V and Ni for coal-fired power plants. Ternary diagrams were proposed to identify K + -Na + -Ca 2+ sources, and Fe existence form. OC/EC and (SNA + OC)/soot-EC ratio for indicating primary OC and mixing state of soot particles were assessed. Fe, Mn and Cu solubilities varied with magnitude differences according to their ratios to SO 4 2 − . For updating OC, EC, SO 4 2 − , NO 3 − , P and Cl − emission inventories, anthropogenic dust should be included. The results are helpful for improving knowledge on aerosol chemical transformation and biogeochemical cycle.
