Abstract

Knowledge of the nitrogen atmospheric cycle is of great importance because of the different compounds
over the chemistry and atmospheric pollution. These pollutants have the capacity to affect the human health, different aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems
and climate. In Cuba, main atmospheric nitrogen deposition compounds varies approximately from 10,8 kgN/ha.year to 129,8 kgN/ha.year during the last
twenty years place. The oxidized nitrogen forms being provided more 20 % and wet deposition depends on our tropical rain climate features. The NH3 and ammonium
are the most important elements in our tropical conditions. This paper is showing more relevant results about main compounds of atmospheric nitrogen
in Cuba from analysis one long time series of data and its potential impact on environment.
