Humans impact the nitrogen cycle by using fertilizer and chemical additives in the soil creating an increase in nitrogen as well as by burning fossil fuels which creates a dramatic increase in nitrogen.

∙ 8y agoAnything that involves the destruction of plant matter for man-made buildings like factories, or even agriculture will disrupt the natural nitrogen cycle, inviting desertification and/or nitrogen runoff or leaching of the soil. Excessive wastes will release more nitrogen into the atmosphere than plants are able to take out of through the process of nitrogen fixation.
However, this all can be reversed with more sustainable and conservational practices of not only natural ecosystems, but more sustainable agricultural practices that minimize the amount of soil that has to be exposed throughout the year. Soil erosion and nutrient leaching can't be stopped, but it can be minimized with more responsible management and better education of such biological systems.
by pollution and by cutting down trees or plants

∙ 7y agoHumans affect the nitrogen cycle through activities that increase the amount of nitrogen that is biologically available in an ecosystem. The major culprits are fossil fuel combustion and the application of nitrogen-based fertilizer. Fossil fuel combustion releases nitric oxides and combines with other elements in the air to form smog and acid rain.

How does human factors influence or affect the nitrogen cycle?
Human factors influence or affect the nitrogen cycle through interacting physical, chemical and biological processes.
All of the listed human actions affect the nitrogen cycle with the exception of the?
runnoff of pesticides
What cycle will Deforestation affect?
It can affect the Carbon Cycle, Nitrogen Cycle and Water Cycle.
How does water pollution affect the nitrogen cycle?
Water pollution affects the nitrogen cycle the least. The nitrogen cycle is the cycle of nitrogen as it enters earth, becomes fixed, and leaves earth, back to the atmosphere. The only way that water pollution can affect the nitrogen cycle is if there is too much trash in one area of a body of water, thus clogging the surface and not allowing algae to absorb the nitrogen. It could also clog the surface and not allow denitrifying bacteria in waterlogged soil to release the nitrogen back into the atmosphere.
At what point does human activity affect the natural cabon cycle?
Human Activities affect the carbon cycle at a huge rate. Release of toxins and other waste might alter the cycle.

How do living organisms affect the environment through their deaths?
the nitrogen cycle
Modern farming practices speed up the decomposition of matter in soil how might this affect the nitrogen cycle?
how might a modern farming speeding up the decomposition of matter in soil affect the nitrogen cycle
How will the removal of leguminous plants affect the nitrogen cycle?
it affects the nitrogen cycle as the leguminous plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria on their roots and these nitrogen-fixing bacteria help to collect nitrogen which is transferred to animals when these leguminous plants have been eaten.
How does human interaction impacts the nitrogen cycle?
Humans impact the nitrogen cycle by burning fossil fuels, dumping waste in bodies of water, and using fertilizer.
How might combustion affect the nitrogen cycle?
it sets fire to it and everything explodes
At what point does human activity affect the natural cabon cycle?
Human Activities affect the carbon cycle at a huge rate. Release of toxins and other waste might alter the cycle.
How do humans badly affect the nitrogen cycle?
they don't. humans are a part of the nitrogen cycle. we eat it in our food, it stays in our bodies, then it leaves our body when we die so it can be used again.
Is the nitrogen cycle part of the water cycle and the carbon and oxygen cycle?
Yes,we are apart of Nitrogen cycle when a human being decomposed forms NH3 as Decomposition extraction.
