Hydro-Geological Context of Mikkes Springs and Different Variations of their Flows (Morocco)

Abstract

<span>The Mikkes basin is located at the north center of Morocco. It comprises three different zones which represent diversified geologies which shelter a phreatic and confined aquifer in the Sais basin and a shallow aquifer in the Tabular Middle Atlas. The springs in the Sais phreatic aquifer have suffered a maximum depletion. The springs with a deep or mixed origin are known as low flow variation springs. Actually, the variations of the fall of spring's flows could be linked to a different hydro-geological context of these springs.</span>
