Flow and diffusion transport dissolved and mobile particulate arsenic in groundwater. The flow velocity (speed and direction) of groundwater is largely controlled by changes in the elevation of the water table with lateral distance, water pressure and density, and the permeability and other properties of the aquifer. In some circumstances, temperature gradients may also affect groundwater flow (Freeze and Cherry, 1979), 25.
