Short summary
This study reports a unique diurnal pattern of nitrous acid (HONO), featuring higher concentrations around noon, based on one-month measurements in coastal Fujian, southeast China. Using an improved chemical transport model, we successfully reproduced the observed HONO levels and temporal variations. Further process analyses and sensitivity experiments quantified the formation mechanisms of HONO in coastal areas and shed light on its impact on the formation of OH radicals and ozone.
