To investigate the spatial and temporal variability of air quality (CO, NO2, O3, and PM2.5) with a high spatial resolution in various adjacent micro-environments, 30 sets of sensor-nodes were deployed within an 800 × 800 m monitoring domain in the center of the largest megacity (Seoul) in South Korea. The sensor network was operated in summer and winter. The daily variation in air pollutant concentrations revealed a similar trend, with discernible concentration differences among monitoring sub-sites and a government-operated air quality monitoring station. These differences in pollutant levels (except PM2.5) among the sub-sites were pronounced in the daytime with high volumes of traffic. The coefficient of divergence and Pearson correlation coefficient showed that spatial and temporal variability was more significant in summer than winter. Ozone displayed the greatest spatial variability, with little temporal variability among the sub-sites and a negative correlation with NO2, implying that ozone concentrations were primarily determined by vehicular NOX emissions due to NO titration effects under the urban canopy. The PM2.5 concentration displayed homogeneous spatial and temporal distributions over the entire monitoring period, implying that PM2.5 monitoring with at least a 1 × 1 km resolution is sufficient to examine the spatial and temporal heterogeneity in urban areas.
