description <p>A major limitation in modeling global ozone (O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span>) vegetation damage has long been the reliance on empirical O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span> sensitivity parameters derived from a limited number of species and applied at the level of plant functional types (PFTs), which ignore the large interspecific variations within the same PFT. Here, we present a major advance in large-scale assessments of O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span> plant injury by linking the trait leaf mass per area (LMA) and plant O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span> sensitivity in a broad and global perspective. Application of the new approach and a global LMA map in a dynamic global vegetation model reasonably represents the observed interspecific responses to O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span> with a unified sensitivity parameter for all plant species. Simulations suggest a contemporary global mean reduction of 4.8 % in gross primary productivity by O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span>, with a range of 1.1 %–12.6 % for varied PFTs. Hotspots with damage <span class="inline-formula">&gt;10 <i>%</i></span> are found in agricultural areas in the eastern US, western Europe, eastern China, and India, accompanied by moderate to high levels of surface O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span>. Furthermore, we simulate the distribution of plant sensitivity to O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span>, which is highly linked with the inherent leaf trait trade-off strategies of plants, revealing high risks for fast-growing species with low LMA, such as crops, grasses, and deciduous trees.</p>
