Domain-specific¶
- Biogeochemical Cycling
- In the nitrogen cycle, biological N₂ fixation was the natural rate-limiting step converting atmospheric dinitrogen to biologically usable forms; its near-doubling by industrial Haber-Bosch synthesis has cascaded surplus nitrogen through the entire terrestrial and aquatic system, driving eutrophication far from the point of application
This sourceGalloway and colleagues' account of the human transformation of the nitrogen cycle and of the cascade by which surplus reactive nitrogen moves through air, water and land to cause damage far from where it was applied.
