Biosphere - Nitrogen Cycle, Microorganisms, Atmosphere

Certain types of bacteria are able to use the free nitrogen in the air to make nitrogen compounds through a process called nitrogen fixation

The nitrogen cycle The nitrogen cycle is a crucial process that converts atmospheric

calvin cycle Nitrogen cycles through both the abiotic and biotic parts of the Earth system The largest reservoir of nitrogen is found in the atmosphere, mostly as nitrogen

carbon cycle Nitrogen Sinks The primary reservoir for long-term storage of nitrogen is nitrogen gas in the atmosphere However, there are other, smaller nitrogen sinks in
