In 2022 the IPCC reported that: "The human perturbation of the natural nitrogen cycle through the use of synthetic fertilizers and manure, as well as nitrogen deposition resulting from land-based agriculture and fossil fuel burning has been the largest driver of the increase in atmospheric N2O of 31.0 ± 0.5 ppb (10%) between 1980 and 2019."

Nitrogen oxide may refer to a binary compound of oxygen and nitrogen, or a mixture of such compounds: Charge-neutral ... Name Formula Nitroxide: O=N ...
NO y is the class of compounds comprising NO x and the NO z compounds produced from the oxidation of NO x which include nitric acid, nitrous acid (HONO), dinitrogen pentoxide (N 2 O 5), peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), alkyl nitrates (RONO 2), peroxyalkyl nitrates (ROONO 2), the nitrate radical (NO 3), and peroxynitric acid (HNO 4).
In the solid state it is ionic with structure [NO 2] + [NO 3] −; as a gas and in solution it is molecular O 2 N–O–NO 2. Hydration to nitric acid comes readily, as does analogous reaction with hydrogen peroxide giving peroxonitric acid (HOONO 2). It is a violent oxidising agent. Gaseous dinitrogen pentoxide decomposes as follows: [15]
A biogeochemical cycle, or more generally a cycle of matter, [1] is the movement and transformation of chemical elements and compounds between living organisms, the atmosphere, and the Earth's crust. Major biogeochemical cycles include the carbon cycle, the nitrogen cycle and the water cycle. In each cycle, the chemical element or molecule is ...
The main purpose of chemical nomenclature is to disambiguate the spoken or written names of chemical compounds: each name should refer to one compound. Secondarily, each compound should have only one name, although in some cases some alternative names are accepted. Preferably, the name should also represent the structure or chemistry of a compound.
The nitrogen cycle is an important process in the ocean as well. While the overall cycle is similar, there are different players [40] and modes of transfer for nitrogen in the ocean. Nitrogen enters the water through the precipitation, runoff, or as N 2 from the atmosphere.
Dinitrogen dioxide is an inorganic compound having molecular formula N 2 O 2.Many structural isomers are possible. The covalent bonding pattern O=N–N=O (a non-cyclic dimer of nitric oxide (NO)) is predicted to be the most stable isomer based on ab initio calculations and is the only one that has been experimentally produced.
