skos:definition "The interaction of an atom, molecule or particle with the solid surface at <br/>
a solid–solution or a solid–gas interface.<br/>
Used in the context of radionuclide 'migration' to describe the interaction of <br/>radionuclides in pore- or groundwater with soil or host rock, and of <br/>radionuclides in surface water bodies with suspended and bed sediments.<br/>A general term which includes <i><b>absorption</b></i> (interactions taking place largely <br/>within the pores of solids) and <i><b>adsorption</b></i> (interactions taking place on solid <br/>surfaces). The 'processes' involved can also be divided into <i><b>chemisorption<br/></b></i>(chemical bonding with the substrate) and <i><b>physisorption</b></i> (physical attraction, <br/>e.g. by weak electrostatic forces).<br/>In practice, 'sorption' may sometimes be difficult to distinguish from other <br/>factors affecting 'migration', such as filtration or 'dispersion'.<br/>" (en)
