Arsenic in groundwater: a world problem [1]

This publication presents the problem of arsenic in groundwater in a manner accessible to a broad and involved public that might not normally have access to scientific literature. It includes sections on: sources and distribution of arsenic in groundwater and aquifers; geochemical experimentation and modelling are tools for understanding the origin of arsenic in groundwater in Bangladesh and elsewhere; review of arsenic behaviour from groundwater and soil to crops and potential impacts on agriculture and food supply; and health effects in inorganic arsenic.
