摘要:The main aim of this study is to assess the groundwater quality from El Aarjate zone (Morocco), a zone with high agricultural activity, and to identify its physicochemical characteristics. The water sampling was carried out on 25 wells, during summer and winter seasons. The parameters measurement which have been performed are: pH, electrical conductivity (EC), bicarbonates (HCO 3 ), nitrates (NO 3 ), sulfate (SO 4 2- ), magnesium (Mg 2+ ), calcium (Ca 2+ ) and sodium (Na + ). The temporal and spatial monitoring of the chemistry of these waters have shown that the hydro-chemical quality depends on the lithological nature of the underlying formation and, secondly, on anthropogenic pollution (in our case: use of nutrient rich fertilizers).
