The Nitrogen Cycle

The Nitrogen Cycle Almost 80% of our atmosphere is made up of the element nitrogen bonded together as N2. This represents most of the nitrogen available on Earth. Ni- trogen is an important element used by all living things to make proteins, amino acids and the nucleic acids of DNA. Yet its gaseous form, N2, found – + in the atmosphere is not usable. It must be “fixed” into nitrates (NO3 ), ammonium (NH4 ) or urea (NH2)2CO to be taken up by plants. Animals can get their nitrogen by eating those plants and so it moves through the food webs. When nitrogen is fixed, it is absorbed by plants and then eaten by animals, who then expel it in their waste and eventually die and decompose (releasing more). The nitrogen is then released into the soil and then back into atmosphere – this is the Nitrogen Cycle. The Nitrogen Cycle can be broken down into 4 processes: Nitrogen fixing – Decay – Nitrification – Dentrification 1. Nitrogen Fixing is when gaseous nitrogen is “fixed” by either lightning (only up to about 8%), bacteria in the soil, or nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the root nodules of leguminous plants (like soy beans). 2. Decay - The nitrogen in plants is eaten by animals and broken down and expelled in the animals’ waste. Microorganisms further break it down into ammonia. 3. Nitrification - Some ammonia is absorbed by plants through their roots, but most is converted by nitrifying bacteria into nitrites and then nitrates. 4. Dentrification moves the nitrogen in the other direction back into the atmosphere. Dentrifying bacteria reduce nitrites and nitrates into nitrogen gas, releasing it back to the atmosphere to complete the cycle. Human actions affect the nitrogen cycle. The amount of nitrogen on Earth doesn’t change, but the way it cycles around the planet does. Agricultural fertilizers and the waste of livestock and suburban lawns release too much nitrogen into waterways (lakes, rivers, groundwater, estuaries and then the ocean) causing algal blooms that can create dead zones in lakes (eutrophication) and even in the ocean. Too much nitrogen released in to the air in concentrated areas by the burning of fossil rules and industrial smokestacks can cause acid rain and increase greenhouse gases. ©Sheri Amsel www.exploringnature.org .

Nitrobacter As an Indicator of Toxicity in Wastewater

Nitrobacter are strictly aerobic, autotrophic, and slow growing bacteria. Because they convert nitrite to nitrate, the effects that toxins have on them can be detected easily by monitoring changes in their nitrite consumption rate. The bacterial cultures were obtained from two sources — the Peoria and Princeton (Illinois) wastewater treatment plants — and tests were con• ducted to determine the effects on the cultures of inorganic ions and organic compounds. The inorganic ions included cadmium, copper, lead, and nickel. The organic compounds were phenol, chlorophenol (three derivatives), dichlo- rophenol (two derivatives), and trichlorophenol. The bioassay procedure is relatively simple and the results are repro• ducible . The effects of these chemical compounds on Nitrobacter were not dramatic. For example, of the compounds tested, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol was the most toxic to Nitrobacter.

Human Alteration of the Global Nitrogen Cycle
What is Nitrogen? Human Alteration of the Nitrogen is the most abundant element in Global Nitrogen Cycle the Earth’s atmosphere. Nitrogen makes up 78% of the troposphere. Nitrogen cannot be absorbed directly by the plants and animals until it is converted into compounds they can use. This process is called the Nitrogen Cycle. Heather McGraw, Mandy Williams, Suzanne Heinzel, and Cristen Whorl, Give SIUE Permission to Put Our Presentation on E-reserve at Lovejoy Library. The Nitrogen Cycle How does the nitrogen cycle work? Step 1- Nitrogen Fixation- Special bacteria convert the nitrogen gas (N2 ) to ammonia (NH3) which the plants can use. Step 2- Nitrification- Nitrification is the process which converts the ammonia into nitrite ions which the plants can take in as nutrients. Step 3- Ammonification- After all of the living organisms have used the nitrogen, decomposer bacteria convert the nitrogen-rich waste compounds into simpler ones. Step 4- Denitrification- Denitrification is the final step in which other bacteria convert the simple nitrogen compounds back into nitrogen gas (N2 ), which is then released back into the atmosphere to begin the cycle again. How does human intervention affect the nitrogen cycle? Nitric Oxide (NO) is released into the atmosphere when any type of fuel is burned. This includes byproducts of internal combustion engines. Production and Use of Nitrous Oxide (N2O) is released into the atmosphere through Nitrogen Fertilizers bacteria in livestock waste and commercial fertilizers applied to the soil. Removing nitrogen from the Earth’s crust and soil when we mine nitrogen-rich mineral deposits. Discharge of municipal sewage adds nitrogen compounds to aquatic ecosystems which disrupts the ecosystem and kills fish.

Human Alteration of the Global Nitrogen Cycle: Causes And
Published by the Ecological Society of America Number 1, Spring 1997 Causes andConsequences Human Alterationofthe Issues in EcologyGlobal NitrogenCycle: Photo by Nadine Cavender Issues in Ecology Number 1 Spring 1997 Human Alteration of the Global Nitrogen Cycle: Causes and Consequences SUMMARY Human activities are greatly increasing the amount of nitrogen cycling between the living world and the soil, water, and atmosphere. In fact, humans have already doubled the rate of nitrogen entering the land-based nitrogen cycle, and that rate is continuing to climb. This human-driven global change is having serious impacts on ecosystems around the world because nitrogen is essential to living organisms and its availability plays a crucial role in the organization and functioning of the worlds ecosystems. In many ecosystems on land and sea, the supply of nitrogen is a key factor controlling the nature and diversity of plant life, the population dynamics of both grazing animals and their predators, and vital ecologi- cal processes such as plant productivity and the cycling of carbon and soil minerals. This is true not only in wild or unmanaged systems but in most croplands and forestry plantations as well. Excessive nitrogen additions can pollute ecosystems and alter both their ecological functioning and the living communities they support. Most of the human activities responsible for the increase in global nitrogen are local in scale, from the production and use of nitrogen fertilizers to the burning of fossil fuels in automobiles, power generation plants, and industries. However, human activities have not only increased the supply but enhanced the global movement of various forms of nitrogen through air and water.

Abstract: While the effects of carbon on soil nitrogen (N) cycle have been extensively studied, it is not clearly understood how co-existing macronutrients, such as phosphorus (P), affect the N cycle in agroecosystems. In this study, P amendment effects on nitrification in a fertile agricultural soil were investigated under a typical N-P amendment rate. In a laboratory incubation study, soils were amended with urea, monopotassium phosphate and a mixture of urea and monopotassium phosphate at the same rate. In soils that received no amendments (control), P only, urea only, and urea plus P amendment, nitrification occurred within the first five days, with an average net nitrification rate of 5.30, 5.77, 16.66 and 9.00 mg N kg−1d−1, respectively. Interestingly, nitrification in urea-treated soils was retarded by P addition where a N:P ratio seemed to be a key factor impeding nitrification.

The chemoautotrophic nitrifying bacteria hardly form biofilms due to their extremely low growth rate; however, biofilm formation of nitrifying bacteria trends to attach in carrier by extracellular polysaccharides that facilitate mutual adhesion, the forming biofilm is also beneficial in nitrogen removal in biological filter systems, es- pecially in aquaculture water treatment systems. The microbial activity within bio-carrier is a key factor in the performance of biofilm reactor. Selection the nitrifier bacteria that biofilm formation and immobilization on the carrier for application in ammonium polluted water treatment technolo- gies, especially in aquaculture is our research objective. Therefore, in this study, ten and six strains of ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) respectively were iso- lated from six different aquaculture water samples collected from Quang Ninh and Soc Trang.
