 The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the biosphere, geosphere, pedosphere hydrosphere, and atmosphere of the Earth.  The carbon cycle was initially discovered by Joseph Priestley and Antoine Lavoisier, and popularized by Humphry Davy.

 The atmosphere  The terrestrial biosphere, which is usually defined to include fresh water systems and non-living organic material, such as soil carbon.  The oceans, including dissolved inorganic carbon and living and non-living marine biota,  The sediments including fossil fuels.  The Earth's interior, carbon from the Earth's mantle and crust is released to the atmosphere and hydrosphere by volcanoes and geothermal systems.

 Carbon exists in the Earth's atmosphere primarily as the gas carbon dioxide (CO 2 ).  Biosphere carbon is also known as green carbon. Around 42,000 gigatonnes of carbon are present in the Biosphere.  The Oceans contain around 36,000 gigatonnes of carbon, mostly in the form of bicarbonate Ion (over 90%, with most of the remainder being Carbonate).
