  1. Fires.


  2. Temperature is probably the biggest effect, since the equilibrium mixing ratio of water is a function of temperature.  Higher temperatures lead to more water vapor (if you are over an ocean, which is true for 65% of the planet, roughly), which will decrease the mixing ratios of nitrogen and oxygen.
