Relating to cycles or processes that involve the earth, such as natural cycles of geological or environmental change.
From geo- (Greek gē, 'earth') + -cyclic (from Greek kyklos, 'circle' or 'cycle'). The term describes repeating patterns anchored to terrestrial systems.
The carbon cycle, water cycle, and rock cycle are all geocyclic—they keep literally cycling through the earth's systems over millions of years, meaning that carbon in your body might have been in a dinosaur's body 100 million years ago.
