Arsenic Leaching Into Water From Soil Researchers suggest that the rivers that drain the mountains are still bringing in the arsenic and depositing it throughout Bangladesh during annual floods. During the dry period, the arsenic would be drawn down to the aquifer, thus replenishing the aquifer's arsenic levels. |
