Bio Geo Chemical Cycles
Types:
● Gaseous cycles include transportation of matter through the
atmosphere. Eg: Carbon cycle, Nitrogen cycle and Water Cycle
● Sedimentary cycles include transportation of matter through the
ground to water means lithosphere to the hydrosphere. Eg
Phosphorus cycle, sulphur cycle.
Carbon Cycle
Water Cycle
The ocean supplies most of the evaporated water. Nearly 84% of water
loss from the oceans through evaporation while 77% gained by
precipitation.
Water from runoff, streams and river covers the 7% to balance evaporation
deficit of oceans.
On land, evaporation is 16% and precipitation is 23%.
