Physicochemical characterization of the unconfined water-table aquifer of the Fez-Meknes basin

This paper aims to determine the hydrogeochemical characteristics of the Fez-Meknes free water table thought the monitoring of the physicochemical analyses of nine samples during the year of 2013, 2016, and 2019. This water table, which circulates in the plio-quaternary formations, is generally supp...
