How does nitrogen get released into the atmosphere?

  • Answer:

    Nitrogen (N2) is always in the atmosphere however if you are talking about how it gets released into the atmosphere after it is fixated by lightning absorbed by plants and eaten by 1st level consumers when they or the plant itself decomposes nitrogen it is released back into atmosphere. That's the short of it. Go to wikipedia or read a ecology journal if you wan't to know all the chemicals, reactions, etc in the process -MD
