摘要:The aim of this work is to study the seasonal variation of the physicochemical and bacteriological characteristics of groundwater in the Triffa plain, Morocco. In total, 41 ground water samples were analyzed for major elements. The results show that the electrical cond uctivity ranges between 740 and 7340 μS/cm, NO 3- ranges between 1.7 and 269.78 mg/l, and Cl - ranges between 29.4 and 2001.55 mg/l. Hydrochemical facies represented using a Piper diagram indicate Na-K-Cl and Ca-Mg-Cl-SO 4 water types. The bacteriological analysis sho wed that the majority of ground water samples are contaminated. The mapping of global quality using the Geographic Information System (GIS) for five periods shows four classes: good, moderate, poor, and very poor quality, with the two last classes predominating. We conclude that t he quality of groundwater is suitable for irrigation and domestic use.
