..., 2003). Photolysis is the primary daytime fate of nitrous acid (HONO), which forms OH and NO with unit quantum yield within 10–20 min (Sander et al., 2006). Thus, HONO can be an important source of the OH radical, which then initiates attack on NMOCs (FinlaysonPitts and Pitts, 2000). Significant, direct emissions of gasphase HONO from BB at ∼3% of NOx was first reported for a savanna fire by Trentmann et al. (2005). A range of 1HONO/1NOx (5–30%) was then observed in a laboratory experiment burning various types of southern African biomass (Keene et al....
