voedingsstoffencycli
Voedingsstoffencycli refers to the biogeochemical cycles of essential nutrients within ecosystems. These cycles describe the pathways and transformations that nutrients undergo as they move between the biotic (living organisms) and abiotic (non-living environment) components of the Earth. Key nutrients involved include carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, and water.
The carbon cycle, for instance, involves the exchange of carbon among the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere,
The nitrogen cycle is particularly important for life as nitrogen is a key component of amino acids
Phosphorus cycles are generally slower than carbon or nitrogen cycles, as phosphorus is not found in a
Understanding these nutrient cycles is fundamental to comprehending ecosystem function, productivity, and sustainability. Human activities, such
