Abstract

A great number of rivers of North Africa are equipped with many dams for multiple purposes, mainly potable water, irrigation and energy production. In most of the countries—Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, the storage capacity exceeds the runoff capacity, which means that water is stored several times in a row during its course to the sea.
