Abstract

Material cycles are essential to maintain the stable state of nature. The chemical elements circulate in different binding forms and aggregate states between the different reservoirs of the biosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, pedosphere and atmosphere, thus ensuring stability and compensating for changes over longer periods of time.
