The aim of the study is to improve the knowledge of the hydrogeological systems in the Sidi Merzoug Sbiba Basin (Northwestern Tunisia), using chemical and isotopic tools. Three major aquifers have been identified in this semi-arid region by previous hydrogeological studies: the Cretaceous, the Miocene and the Plio-Quaternary aquifers. Its hydrodynamic regime is largely influenced by tectonics, lithology and recharge conditions.

Given the heterogeneity of the multilayer aquifer system in a complex fractured zone, an hydrochemical and environmental isotope (2H, 18O,3H and14C) data were used to caracterised the groundwater flow and provide valuable information about the geochemical processes controlling groundwater quality a... view moreĀ»
