جمعت عيّنات من المياه الجوفية من سبعة مواقع في حوض اللاذقية، خلال موسمي شتاء و صيف 2013 و قد عولجت العيّنات كيميائياً و إحصائياً بهدف تقييم نوعية و كيميائية المياه، بغرض تقييم صلاحيتها، و فهم الوضع الهيدروجيولوجي السائد. و قد لوحظ أن تراكيز العناصر الرئيسية المحددة يقع ضمن الحدود المسموح بها لمياه الشرب و الري، كما تبين عدم وجود تغيرات حادة سواء بالملوحة أو النمط الجيوكيميائي للمياه باتجاه حركة المياه الجوفية. و أن المياه الجوفية في المواقع المختارة متأثرة بشكل كبير بالتركيب الليتولوجي لصخور الحامل المائي و هي عموماً غير ملوثة بالمياه البحرية باستثناء بئر المينا البيضا القريب من البحر، و هذا ما تم إثباته من خلال حساب بعض النسب الجيوكيميائية, كما أكدت هذه الدراسة أن الجريانات المائية في مختلف الحوامل المائية لحوض اللاذقية تملك علاقة هيدروليكية فيما بينها و بالتالي تشكل جرياناً مائياً واحداً ذا خصائص متجانسة في أغلب أجزائه, و يتطابق اتجاه حركة هذا الجريان في أكثر الأحيان مع الانحدار العام للمنطقة.
Groundwater Samples were collected from seven locations distributed in Lattakiabasin during the winter and summer seasons of 2013.All samples were treated chemically and calculated statistically to evaluate the quality of the studied water and its chemical properties. The aim was to assess the suitability of the water to be potable and to determine the predominant hydrogeology status. It was noticed that the concentrations of the detected major elements were within allowed limits cited for drinking and irrigation waters. Also, it was found that there were no sharp changes either in salinity or in geochemical type of the water toward groundwater movement. Furthermore, the groundwater in the studied locations was largely influenced by lithological composition of aquatic holder. In general, these waters were found to be uncontaminated with marine waters with exception of the location called " wall of Al Mena Al Baida" that is located near the sea. This has been proven by calculation of some of geochemical proportions. Also, this study proved that the aquatic flows in the different water holders of Latakia basin have a hydrolytic relationship among them. Consequently, these flows comprise a uniform aquatic flow with homogenous properties in most of its parts. The direction movement of this uniform flow was identical to the general decline of the zone mostly.

This study conducted on 30 sample of ground water, spreaded over most of the Cretaceous formations in the studied area, in order to determine origin and quality of water and evaluate it for the purposes of irrigation and drinking.
The study showed t
hat samples taken are not of the same origin, but of the same hydrochemical type of hydrocarbons. Four sets of formed salts also detected. All samples of this study were valid for irrigation water. The samples taken from Bchuna, Al-Matn, Al- Maran, Kafrdabel, Kassaben sites were safe for drinking, the rest of the samples were not because of the increase of calcium ions concentration. The sample of Ain-Kataa site had an increase in concentration of bicarbonate and potassium ions. An exceeded concentration of the limit of these electrolytes values for drinking water according to the Syrian Standard Specificationswas noticed.
Barada and Auvage basin, experience of limited water resources against
growing of human activities related to increasing of inhabitants, and climate
changes influence on precipitation and water balance. This research focuses on
the definition of p
resent and expected water shortage in Barada and Auvage
basin within the period between 2012-2035 year, and the abilities of its changes
regarding the increasing of the gap between supply and demand, and the role of
integrated groundwater resources management in facing water challenges, so
decreasing of water shortage, taking into account, sustainability of ecosystems,
as an important element of integrated water resources management.
When estimating groundwater recharge in karstified and fractured aquifers
it’s important to take into consideration, that they differ from porous aquifers
by inhomogeneities of their hydraulic properties because of the great variance
of infiltrati
on properties in their rocks. In this research the process of
groundwater recharge in Sher-mansour and Haramon areas in Antilebanon,
where karstified and fractured aquifers are developed, was discussed. The
portion of rainfall reaching the groundwater was calculated by applying water
balance and groundwater level changes methods. In the first method the area
was divided into surface zones and water balance components were calculated
in each zone and the portion was estimated at 55.8% of rainfall in dry years
like 2005-2006. In the second method the area was divided into subsurface
zones and groundwater level fluctuations, storage coefficient and groundwater
storage were calculated. The groundwater recharge varied between 17.5% in
Haramon area and 80% in Sher Mansour area. The results showed that
portions of rainfall reaching groundwater are not equal in the deferent
subsurface zones and are deferent from those calculated by water balance
method.
An available free groundwater were classified
hydrochemical, and determined its fitting for general uses in a part
of Damascus's Ghouta, which suffers water deficiency, where the
study carried out on groundwater samples taken from 20 wells
distri
buted on all study area, the results show that groundwater
classified hydrochemical as calcic water and non potable, and
unsuitable for domestic consumption in broad part from study area,
but arable and recommend to use in irrigation plants that have weak
resistant to salinity, and not preferable to use in industry generally,
but it's good for building and concrete works.
Wadi Huraira Basin is considered one of the left boundary basins to
Barada at Kafer Al-Awameed. It extends to an estimated area north-east and
south-west about 56 square kilometers. It is bounded Bisan Basin and Madaya
Mountains Basin from the fro
m the north, and from the east both of Bisan and
Wadi Mahadi Basins; whereas the later shares forming the southern boundaries
with both of Abou Salem and Wadi Alawaz; whereas, Barada River forms the
western boundary of Wadi Huraira Basin.
