The Hungarian term "kénciklusban" translates to "in the sulfur cycle" in English. It refers to the biogeochemical processes that involve the movement and transformation of sulfur compounds through the Earth's atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere. The sulfur cycle is crucial for life, as sulfur is an essential component of amino acids (cysteine and methionine) and proteins, as well as vitamins like biotin and thiamine.
Key processes within the sulfur cycle include weathering of rocks releasing sulfur-containing minerals, oxidation of sulfides
Human activities, particularly industrial processes and the burning of coal and oil, have significantly impacted the
