The pathway in which nitrogen moves through the ecosystem Nitrogen is a component of amino acids, proteins, nucleic acids (DNA), ATP The main reservoir of nitrogen (N 2 ) is the atmosphere, 78%. N 2 gas must be converted to other forms. The Terrestrial Nitrogen Cycle

4 processes of the Nitrogen Cycle Nitrogen Fixation - process converts N 2 into NH 4 + (ammonium ions). Done by nitrogen fixing bacteria found in soil or nodules on roots of legumes Examples of legumes: peas, beans, alfalfa, peanuts, clover

NH 4 + by ammonification, and NH 4 + is decomposed to NO 2 - and often to NO 3 – by nitrification Nitrifying bacteria convert NH 4 + in soils Plants absorb nitrates through roots Bashan, Y. and Levanony, H. (1987)

Ammonification Breakdown of nitrogen compounds back into ammonia products

Denitrification Conversion of NH 4 +, NO 2 -, NO 3 - back to N 2 gas (bacteria do this).
