In ecology-and earth-science, a biogeochemical cycle is a circuit or pathway by which a chemical-element or molecule moves through both biotic ("bio-") and abiotic ("geo-") compartments of an ecosystem. In effect, the element is recycled, although in some such cycles there may be places (called "sinks") where the element is accumulated or held for a long period of time.
Biogeochemical cycle, any of the natural circulation pathways of the essential elements of living matter.

A geo (earth) bio (life) chemical (molecules/elements) pathway is a fancy way of saying nutrient cycle. Nutrients are a chemical which travels a cyclic pathbetween the earth and livingthings.


Why are cycles in biosphere called biogeochemical cycles?

Water, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen are what make up the biogeochemical cycles. Since all of these elements occur naturally in the environment these biogeochemical cycles are considered to be sustainable.
