The directed movement of calcium ions into a cell or organelle. A process whereby an ion is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. A process whereby a calcium ion is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. The directed movement of calcium (Ca) ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of divalent metal cations, any metal ion with a +2 electric charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The process whereby a solute is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. This process includes the actual movement of the solute, and any regulation and preparatory steps, such as reduction of the solute. The directed movement of charged atoms or small charged molecules into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.
