Public Health Relevance

Arsenic is ubiquitous, yet groundwater concentrations, the principal route of human exposure, are highly variable. An improved understanding of the processes that regulate arsenic levels is needed identify safe and contaminated water supplies and thus minimize the risks of this contamination. Fundamental knowledge of the biogeochemical processes that affect As levels is therefore directly relevant to public health.
