The majority of Earth's atmosphere contain 78% is nitrogen, The Nitrogen cycle is the geochemical cycle in which nitrogen is converted into multiple chemical forms. Nitrogen cycle occurs in terrestrial and marine ecosystem. Nitrogen can be converted through both biological and physical process. The processes that are involved in nitrogen cycle are fixation, ammonification, nitrification, and denitrification.
There is limited amount of nitrogen that is useful but <u>increase of fossil fuel combustion, use of artificial nitrogen fertilizer</u> have dramatically increased the amount of nitrogen in nitrogen cycle.
Advanced technologies like remote sensing have modified the way by which maps are constructed. Remote sensing is the procedure of collecting information about Earth with the help of instruments mounted on airplanes, satellites, or ships.
Remote sensing helps in monitoring and detecting the physical features of a region by determining its emitted and reflected radiation at a distance from the targeted region. Unique or specialized camera gather remotely sensed pictures of the Earth that assists the researchers in sensing the things about the Earth.
Upwelling is a process in which the deep and cold water rises to the water surface and not sea surface. This process plays an important role in maintaining balance in our ecosystem as it boost the marine productivity by washing the nutrients from deeper waters to the photic layer where photosynthesis is promoted.
