Short summary
This study investigates how the formation and aging processes of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) influence the evolution of SOA volatility in downwind regions. Our results reveal that elevated NOₓ levels enhanced the daytime SOA volatility by modifying gas-particle partitioning, particularly through suppressing the production of low-volatility organic vapors. In contrast, photochemical aging was associated with reduced SOA volatility.
