Preferred term
carbon cycle
Definition(s)
- The carbon cycle describes the biogeochemical cycle, or routes by which carbon atoms are exchanged through nested networks of environmental systems from the atmosphere into the biosphere, through photosynthesis and back again with respiration, decomposition, and biomass burning. Elemental carbon is a traditional component of the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere (rocks, such as limestone; coal; and soils), as well as the biosphere (all living things).
