description <p>Dry deposition is a key process for surface ozone (O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub>)</span> removal. Stomatal uptake is a major component of O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span> dry deposition, which is parameterized differently in current land surface models and chemical transport models. We developed and used a standalone terrestrial biosphere model, driven by a unified set of prescribed meteorology, to evaluate two widely used dry deposition modeling frameworks, Wesely (1989) and Zhang et al. (2003), with different configurations of stomatal resistance: (1) the default multiplicative method in the Wesely scheme (W89) and Zhang et al. (2003) scheme (Z03), (2) the traditional photosynthesis-based Farquhar–Ball–Berry (FBB) stomatal algorithm, and (3) the Medlyn stomatal algorithm (MED) based on optimization theory. We found that using the FBB stomatal approach that captures ecophysiological responses to environmental factors, especially to water stress, can generally improve the simulated dry deposition velocities compared with multiplicative schemes. The MED stomatal approach produces higher stomatal conductance than FBB and is likely to overestimate dry deposition velocities for major vegetation types, but its performance is greatly improved when spatially varying slope parameters based on annual mean precipitation are used. Large discrepancies were also found in stomatal responses to rising CO<span class="inline-formula"><sub>2</sub></span> levels from 390 to 550 ppm: the multiplicative stomatal method with an empirical CO<span class="inline-formula"><sub>2</sub></span> response function produces reduction (<span class="inline-formula">−</span>35 %) in global stomatal conductance on average much larger than that with the photosynthesis-based stomatal method (<span class="inline-formula">−</span>14 %–19 %). Our results show the potential biases in O<span class="inline-formula"><sub>3</sub></span> sink caused by errors in model structure especially in the Wesely dry deposition scheme and the importance of using photosynthesis-based representation of stomatal resistance in dry deposition schemes under a changing climate and rising CO<span class="inline-formula"><sub>2</sub></span> concentration.</p>
