| Abstract | Nitrogen (N) is an important part of cells in living beings, and it moves around different parts of the Earth like the air, land, oceans, and the deep interior. This movement helps shape the air we breathe and how suitable our planet is for living things over time. Places where the Earth's plates push against each other, called subduction zones, are excellent for studying how nitrogen moves between the surface and the interior. Recent studies show that these subduction zones send more nitrogen d |
