With a deep focus on your surroundings, you are able to glean more information from the chakra around you. While this jutsu is active, you can readily distinguish types of chakra emanating from a creature, and you can distinguish different sources of chakra within a creature. For example, you would be able to sense the presence of a tailed beast within a creature, or you could tell if a creature is drawing from an alternative source of chakra such as nature chakra.

Additionally, you can sense the presence of chakra up to 8 hours after it has been dispersed. For example, if a ninja uses a fire style technique in a forest 6 hours prior to you using this jutsu, you would be able to sense that a fire style technique had been used there.

Objects that emanate chakra are also revealed to you while this jutsu is active, and you can use an action to examine an object like this to determine if it is tied to a particular chakra nature.
