Zinc cycle

Zinc fluxes between the lithosphere and biosphere, through basins in soil, biomass, water systems, and industry.[1] Estimated fluxes are shown as labeled arrows in Gg/year.

The zinc cycle is a biogeochemical cycle that transports zinc through the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere.
