INFLUENCE OF CLIMATE AND LAND USE CHANGE ON THE SURFACE WATER QUALITY OF THE MIDDLE OUERRHA, TAOUNATE, RIF – MOROCCO
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
The region of Middle Ouerrha located in the south rifain slope, is the rainiest area of Morocco. However, the impermeability of its lands formed mainly of Cretaceous marls, prevents the development of water resources, since, surface waters are vulnerable to several natural and anthropogenic constraints. Therefore, the main objective of the project is to understand the impact of climate variation and soil distribution on surface water quality. Maximum precipitation is recorded at the Bab Ouender station in November and December, between 112.06 and 115.12 mm respectively. From a land use point of view, the majority of dominated soils are of poorly developed soil type along streams. The environmental study of the surface waters shows a degradation by the effluents of oil mills during the period of trituration of the vegetable waters. This critical situation affecting water resources in the Middle Ouerrha region requires good management to minimize the shortage, especially with the increase in meteorological drought.
