title: Full analytical description of graviosmotic volume flows.
abstract: A full analytical description of graviosmotic volume flows is presented. This was done with the use of theoretical models earlier developed on the basis of interferometric studies of graviosmotic systems. The description includes both stationary and non-stationary graviosmotic flows induced with solutions whose density decreases as well as increases with increasing concentration. The obtained equations that describe the fluxes may prove especially useful in studies on water transport in plants which occurs by graviosmotic mechanisms.
