Atmospheric NOx oxidation as major sources for nitrous acid (HONO)

Abstract Nitrous acid (HONO) is the major precursor of hydroxyl (OH) radicals to initiate tropospheric chemistry leading to formation of secondary pollutants. The sources of atmospheric HONO, however, are not fully understood. Here we show two additional HONO sources that stem from atmospheric oxida...
