Cover Story: This study predicted three land-use change scenarios in 2050 based on the Land-Use Harmonization project and China’s carbon neutrality background. Under the SSP126 pathway, meteorological changes would increase emissions of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) in China by 1.0 TgC in 2050, compared with 2015, while land-use change would increase them by 1.5–7.1 TgC. The impact of land-use changes on O3 and PM concentrations through BVOC would be about 3.6% in 2050 and this impact is more pronounced in summer. The impact of land-use change on pollutants was more obvious under the SSP126 pathway than under the SSP585 pathway. Under the carbon neutrality scenario, the increase in PM concentration caused by land-use change would pose a risk to air quality compliance. View this paper
