Abstract

Groundwater is an essential resource in both Algeria and the rest of the world. Considered an important source of water supply in semi-arid areas, groundwater has several advantages over surface water, they are generally characterized by higher quality, better protected against chemical pollutants, less subject to fluctuations seasonal and permanent, and more evenly spread over large areas as surface water.
