A laboratory study was conducted on the partitioning of four arsenical species onto organic and sandy bottom sediments of Union Lake, N.J. Sandy sediments released more arsenic and sorbed less arsenic than the organic sediments. Organic sediments generally sorbed inorganic As species better than organic As species.
