Microbial Ecology & Eco Systems

Soil biogeochemistry is closely equivalent to systems ecology. As ecosystems, soils support terrestrial plant life, microbes and the other lives, including ourselves that depend on it. Soils are very important sinks of carbon, playing a main role in the regulation of atmospheric carbon dioxide and climate. Soil chemical processes also are important for the regulation of nutrient and toxic element concentrations in the environment.

 

The nutrient cycle is movement and exchange of organic and inorganic matter back into the production of living matter. The process is regulate by food web pathways that decompose matter into mineral nutrients. Nutrient cycles happen within ecosystems.  Ecosystems recycle locally, converting mineral nutrients into the production of biomass, and on a larger scale they participate in a global system of inputs and outputs where matter is exchanged and transported through a larger system of biogeochemical cycles. Mineral cycles include carbon cycle, sulfur cycle, nitrogen cycle, cycle, phosphorus, oxygen cycle, among others that continually recycle along with other mineral nutrients into productive ecological nutrition.
