Short summary
Climate change, rising [CO2], and vegetation dynamics are reshaping global water cycle, but their impacts remain unclear. We improved the coupled carbon and water model to analyze China’s water yield (WY) changes (1982–2017). Our results showed that climate change was the dominant driver nationally, vegetation/ [CO2] most affected in 400-1600 mm precipitation zones. Projections indicate [CO2] may outweigh vegetation effects on WY by 2100. This work informs sustainable water management.
