Application of electrical Tomography for the hydrogeological study of the Fez-Taza corridor, Case of Bir Tam-Tam(Morocco)

Abstract

The present work contributes to the multidisciplinary geological, hydrogeological, and geophysical exploration of groundwater in the Bir Tam-Tam region of the Fez-Taza corridor. Our main objective is to release water resources in our study area to supply drinking water in the region and irrigation of agricultural areas. Potential zones are located at the Lias fracturing zones. This study is interested in understanding the hydrogeological context of the study area through geophysical methods such as Electrical Tomography. The comparison of geological data, Drilling data, and the interpretation of the results of electrical Tomography have made it possible to highlight the geoelectric levels likely to constitute a potential aquifer and to locate possible structural accidents (faults) affecting the dolomitic limestone formations of Lias that could drain groundwater.

Study of the Physico-Chemical and Microbiological Quality of Water from River Innaouene, Taza Province, Morocco

“…The sulfate ion (SO 4 2−) is a chemical compound that occurs naturally in almost all natural waters in highly variable concentrations (most commonly in contact with gypsum or other common minerals)(Atteia et al, 1998). Sulfates in natural waters have essentially two origins:• Geochemical and atmospheric(Faiz et al, 2021). • As a result of the bacterial activity (chlorothiobacteria, rhodothiobacteria, etc.).…”
