Biogeochemical Cycles

The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged between the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and the Earth's atmosphere.

The sun heats the sea area and other surface waters, which evaporates liquid water and sublimates ice, converting it directly from solid to gas. Such solar-powered processes move water into the atmosphere as water vapor.

Sulfur circulates through the biosphere in the following way, on the one hand it is understood the passage from the soil or from the water, if we speak of an aquatic system, to the plants, to the animals and returns again to the soil or to the Water.

The nitrogen cycle is the biogeochemical process by which it is converted into multiple chemical forms that circulate over time between what is called the biosphere, the terrestrial and marine ecosystems.

The phosphorus cycle is a biogeochemical cycle that describes the movement of this chemical element in an ecosystem. Living beings take phosphorus in the form of phosphates from phosphate rocks, which decompose through weathering and release phosphates.
