The upstream part of the Essaouira basin, a data-scare region in Morocco, Northwestern Africa. scarcity hydro-climate data is significant challenge found several regions worldwide, where qualitative and quantitative water resource information remains limited. Estimating predicting groundwater levels (GWL) such areas producing knowledge for effective management. To address this issue, present study aimed to use Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model conjunction with downscaled total storage...

The downstream part of the Essaouira basin, Morocco, Northwestern Africa. This study combines multivariate statistical analyses, stable isotopes, hydrogeochemical, hydrogeological, geological and remotely sensed data to gain a better understanding hydrological groundwater salinization processes in coastal aquifer. Hydrogeochemical from 223 samples as well isotope collected during 10 sampling campaigns between 1990 2020 were compiled subjected comprehensive analysis. Groundwater recharge...

Water stress is one of the factors controlling agricultural land salinization and also a major problem worldwide. According to FAO most recent estimates, it already affects more than 400 million hectares. The Tafilalet plain in Southeastern Morocco suffers from soil salinization. In this regard, GIS tools remote sensing were used processing 19 satellite images acquired Landsat 4–5, (Landsat 7), 8), (Sentinel 2) sensors. indices literature (16 indices) tested correlated with results obtained...

In recent decades, the Bouregreg Chaouia region has been subject to urban growth and a reduction in agricultural land this region, which changed its environmental variables made it vulnerable climate change. This work raises spatiotemporal monitoring of use certain parameters (vegetation cover, albedo, surface temperature from 1987 2015 by exploring intelligent spatial data region. The remote sensing products were computed Landsat 5 TM, 7 ETM+ 8 Oli/TIRS images obtained during dry seasons...
