nitrogen-cycling

6 articles

Nitrogen-cycling is the biogeochemical process through which nitrogen circulates in different chemical forms in ecosystems via biological transformations such as fixation, nitrification, and denitrification. Plants depend critically on this cycle to acquire usable nitrogen, since they cannot directly access atmospheric nitrogen despite its abundance. Understanding nitrogen cycling is essential for plant science, as it governs plant nutrition, soil health, and the productivity of agricultural and natural ecosystems.
