Nutrient Cycles in a Nutshell

Nutrient cycles, also known as cycles, describe the movement of chemical elements through different sources and processes, such as the atmosphere, soil, rocks, bodies of water, and organisms. Nutrient cycles keep essential available to plants and other living organisms. The of these elements is critical to maintaining life on Earth. The carbon cycle, the nitrogen and water cycle all have important phases. The cycle lacks a true phase, and is slow and depends on the water cycle, also called the cycle.

Nutrient cycles, also known as biogeochemical cycles, describe the movement of chemical elements through different sources and processes, such as the atmosphere, soil, rocks, bodies of water, and organisms. Nutrient cycles keep essential elements available to plants and other living organisms. The cycling of these elements is critical to maintaining life on Earth. The carbon cycle, the nitrogen cycle, and the water cycle all have important cycling phases. The phosphorus cycle lacks a true atmospheric phase, and is slow and depends on the water cycle, also called the hydrologic cycle.
