Using kinetic Monte Carlo simulations, an investigation was made, within the framework of a simple lattice-gas diffusion model, of the diffusion of particles adsorbed onto a lattice with moving surface atoms. Dynamic surface reconstruction was found to increase the particle diffusion coefficient substantially and changed the activation energy.
