Floristic Analysis of Marmoucha's Plant Diversity (Middle Atlas, Morocco)
LAZAROA 34: 117-140. 2013 doi: 10.5209/rev_LAZA.2013.v34.n1.40753 ISSN: 0210-9778 Floristic analysis of Marmoucha’s plant diversity (Middle Atlas, Morocco) Fatima Nassif & Abbès Tanji (*) Abstract: Nassif, F. & Tanji, A. Floristic analysis of Marmoucha’s plant diversity (Middle Atlas, Morocco). Lazaroa 34: 117-140 (2013). As part of an ethnobotanical exploration among the Berbers of Marmoucha in the Middle Atlas in Morocco, a floristic analysis was conducted to inventory the existing plants and assess the extent of plant diversity in this area. Located in the eastern part of the Middle Atlas, the Marmoucha is characterized by the presence of various ecosystems ranging from oak and juniper forests to high altitude steppes typical from cold areas with thorny plants. The fieldwork was conducted over five years (2008-2012) using surveys and informal techniques. The results show that the number of species recorded in Marmoucha is 508 distributed over 83 families and 325 genera, representing 13%, 54% and 33% of species, families and genera at the national level, respectively. With 92 species, the Asteraceae is the richest family, representing 18% of the total reported followed by Poaceae and the Fabaceae . From a comparative perspective, the ranking of the eight richer families of the local flora in relation to their position in the national flora reveals a significant match between the positions at local and national levels with slight ranking differences except in the case of Rosaceae. In the study area, the number of endemics is significant. It amounts to 43 species and subspecies belonging to 14 families with the Asteraceae counting 10 endemics. -
Author's Response
Cover letter Dear Editor, The present revised version of the paper entitled “Plio-Quaternary tectonic evolution of the southern margin of the Alboran Basin (Western Mediterranean)” is an attempt to correct the flaws pointed out by the referee 3 (Guillermo Booth-Rea) and the R1. As pointed out in the editor review, background information was lacunose in some parts of the introduction, and we did not adequately discussing any alternative model for the tectonic evolution of the region. As indicated by the R1 and R3, some typing errors were present and have been corrected. In the text and in the figures 10, 11 and 13, we replaced the words compressive bend, by restraining bend. In the introduction, we precise the ages of the inversion and the extensional structures in the West Alboran Basin. We also introduce results from R3 papers. In the discussion, we now clearly discuss the effect of lithospheric sinking and necking of the structural pattern. In his review, R3 points to the possible influence of lithospheric tear and delamination processes. We agree with the referee that deep mantellic processes are important and we clarify our argumentation. We made small modifications in the Section 4.1 to better discuss the role of crustal thinning occurring north of the Alboran basin during the Mio-Pliocene, as evidenced by the volcanic activity. In the 4.2.2 section, we clarify the role of the crustal thickness variations due to mantle delamination and crustal thinning, to localize the deformation. In the section 4.3, we add two new short paragraphs discussing the importance of the timing of lithospheric necking and detachment. -

Agence du Bassin Hydraulique de la Moulouya, BP. 703, Oujda, Maroc. 3. Faculté Polytechnique, Université de Mons, Belgique ([email protected]). Résumé. L’aquifère profond d’Aïn Béni Mathar est un important réservoir d’eau au Maroc. Il est formé de calcaires dolomitiques du Jurassique et mis en charge sous un recouvrement généralement argilo-marneux d’âge mio-plio-quaternaire. Vu que c’est la seule ressource en eau d’une région connue par son climat aride et la pénurie de ses eaux de surface, la nappe est de plus en plus sollicitée à des fins multiples. Il en résulte une baisse lente mais continue de son niveau piézométrique, constituant ainsi un problème non encore résolu. Les informations sur cette nappe sont encore fragmentaires et insuffisantes, en raison de sa large étendue et de sa profondeur importante. Dans le but d’améliorer la connaissance de cet aquifère, un modèle géologique 3D a été élaboré dans cette étude. Il a été construit à partir des informations fournies par les cartes géologiques et par 174 sondages mécaniques. -

Characterization of Neogene Marls from the Kert Basin
CHARACTERIZATION OF NEOGENE MARLS FROM THE KERT BASIN (N.E. MOROCCO): SUITABILITY FOR THE CERAMIC INDUSTRY H. NASRI A,*, A. AZDIMOUSA A, K. EL HAMMOUTI A, A. EL HADDAR A, M. EL OUAHABI B A Laboratoire des Géosciences Appliquées, Faculté des Sciences, Université Mohammed Premier, Oujda, Morocco B UR Argile, Géochimie et Environnement Sédimentaires (AGEs), Département de Géologie, Université de Liège, Liège, Belgium *corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The North-Eastern region of Morocco is filled with marine marls of Neogene age. The Neogene marls from the lower-Kert area were characterized to evaluate their suitability in the ceramic industry. To meet this objective, two cross-sections involving all the Neogene facies were performed This is a 'preproof' accepted article for Clay Minerals. This version may be subject to change during the production process. DOI: 10.1180/clm.2019.50 on the both banks of the Kert River. Grey and green marls occurring between sandstone and tuffs were characterized by mineralogical (XRD) and physico- chemical analyses (grain-size, Atterberg limits, XRF, and specific surface area). The studied Neogene clays are mainly calcareous silty marls with CaCO3 content ranging from 13 to 20 wt.%. The mineralogical composition showed the occurrence of quartz, calcite, feldspars, dolomite, illite, kaolinite, chlorite, and mixed-layers (10-14 Å). Cristobalite occurred only in the uppermost level of the green marls supplied from volcanic ash during the Messinian. Siderite and rhodochrosite occurred as traces pointing out to reducing or locally oxidizing conditions during sedimentation or shortly thereafter. There, marls have medium to high plasticity that is optimum for extrusion. -
Messinian Salinity Crisis Impact on the Groundwater Quality in Kert Aquifer NE Morocco: Hydrochemical and Statistical Approaches

Martí i Franquès, s/n, 08028 Barcelona, Spain. 2GEOHYD Laboratory, Université Cady Ayyad, Faculté des sciences Semlalia, Marrakech, Morocco. 3Laboratory of Hydraulic Agency of Moulouya Basin, Oujda, Morocco. Accepted 28 June, 2012 Groundwater’s studies at middle Kert aquifer in northeast of Morocco are very important due to the semi-arid character and its geological history. The region is recognized by messinian salinity crisis already 5.6 Ma. Water chemistry is mainly dominated by dissolution of evaporate rocks (Halite and Gypsum) related to outcropping and basement limits developed in Messinian age. Freshwater with total dissolved solids 740 mg/l (average value) in Tafersite district is chemically distinct from saline water with total dissolved solids of 9803 mg/l in the south zone. In wadis, water is S04-Cl-Ca type; they are influenced by the surrounding highlands located at the south of the plain. The investigation reveals that + 2+ 2+ - 2- weathering of evaporated rocks is the processes responsible for high Na , Ca , Mg , Cl and SO4 concentrations. Also, hydro chemical data displays that freshwater observed in the northwest part reflect the influence of freshwaters coming from metamorphic massive of Temsamane. -

IKHMERDI1 1 Laboratory of Industrial Engineering, Sultan Moulay Slimane University, Sciences and technologies Faculty, Beni Mellal, Morocco. 2 Hydraulic Basin Agency of Loukkos, Tetouan, Maroc. 3 National Office of Electricity and Drinking Water (ONEE), Rabat, Maroc. Abstract. The Ghiss-Nekor aquifer, located in the north-east of the action area of the ABHL, plays a strategic role in the drinkable water supply of the city of Al Hoceima and of the neighboring urban areas. It also participates in the irrigation of PMH. However, this aquifer has problems such as over-exploitation and pollution. In the face of these problems, the only Solution is the establishment of a new mode of governance, which privileges the participation, the involvement and the responsibility of the actors concerned in a negotiated contractual framework, namely the aquifer contract. The purpose of this study is to diagnose the current state of the Ghiss Nekor aquifer, the hydrogeological characterization of the aquifer, the use of the waters of the aquifer, the Problem identification and the introduction of the aquifer contract, which aims at the participatory and sustainable management of underground water resources in the Ghiss- Nekor plain, to ensure sustainable development. 1 Introduction Morocco has always made the development of the water sector a priority and a strategic choice. This sector, one of the main levers of economic and social development, faces two key challenges: [1] - The depletion of water resources in relation to the increase in all-purpose water demand, with a tendency towards absolute scarcity by 2025 [1] - The degradation of water resources that undergo different forms of pollution. -
