Carbon cycles slowly between the ocean and land, but it moves quickly from the atmosphere to organisms (through photosynthesis) and back to the atmosphere (through cellular respiration). The nitrogen cycle and phosphorus cycles are other key biogeochemical cycles. Excess nutrients can disrupt aquatic ecosystems through eutrophication.
