Short summary
Since 2013, China’s Clean Air Action has altered land carbon uptake. Our modeling shows that while aerosols and nitrogen deposition previously boosted the carbon sink, their effects have weakened. Conversely, ozone's negative impact has grown. This shifts the overall atmospheric influence from enhancement to suppression. Controlling ozone is thus key for dual benefits in clean air and carbon neutrality.
