This study deals with spatial and temporal distributions of organic and inorganic phosphorus in sedimentary columns from Al-Kabir Al-Shimaliand Al-Hussain estuaries, during the period March 2013- February 2014. Organic phosphorus concentrations ranged between (2.0 - 207.6) μg/gin sediments from Al-Kabir Al-Shimali estuary, and from (1.7 –130.9) μg/gin sediments from Al-Hussainestuary. Sediment content from inorganic phosphorus ranged between (12.4 – 371.2)μg / g at sediments from Al-Kabir Al-Shimali estuary, and from (2.0 - 242.6)μg /g at Al-Hussain estuary. Granular composition of sediments did not play a significant role in the temporal and spatial distributions of organic and inorganic phosphorus. In general, organic and inorganic phosphorus concentrations decreased gradually from winter to summer, and from surface layers of the sedimentary column towards the deeper layers. The ratiobetween inorganic and organic phosphorus increasedfrom river into marine sediments. In addition, this ratio increased gradually as the sedimentdepthincreased, and was high in winter and low in summer.

Study of the general characteristics of Fractures in the central part of the AL-Kabir AL- Shimali river basin showed the presence of several main groups of Fractures with directions NE-SW _ NNESSW, NW-SE , E-W.and showed increased fracture rate in the northern and southern parts of the study area, and that the spacing between the Fractures close to the medium convergence (5-34) cm , also show a aperture ranged between (0.1-5.1) cm, where aperture width was increased in southwest of Lake 16 October near Lattakia- Kless fault .
The aim of this research is to identified the tectonic evolution of Naher Al-Kabir Al-Shimaly Basin from tectonic subsidence curve witch calculated from Lattakia1 well data. Tectonic subsidence was identified in lower-middle Jurassic en relation o f opening of East Mediterranean basin. A subsidence is occurred in Cenomaniane, after a stage of uplift in late Jurassic-lower Cretaceous en relation to fold and erosion known at regional scale.
This study was carried out during the period 2011–2010 for 12 months. 110 species of phytoplankton in Al-Kabir Al-Shamali River were identified including 4 species of Euglenophyta, 15 species of Cyanophyta, 49 species of Chrysophyta, 40 species of Chlorophyta and 2 species of Pyrrophyta. Some physicochemical parameters of water were determined. Some of them were the temperature which ranged between 10.8–28°C, the pH 7.76–8.2 and the BOD 1.6–10mg/l, while the concentrations of NO3 - ranged between 1.10-250 mg/l, nitrate 0.13-0.01mg/l, and PO4 - ions 0.015–1.05 mg/l. The highest value of ammonium ions was 6.25mg/l and the lowest was 0.011 mg/l. BOD concentrations ranged between 6.06-12.07mg/l.
This is a study of free groundwater level changes through time, and the level of its being affected by natural and artificial factors, which allows evaluating general water situation of the aquifer. This study shows that groundwater system in the stu dy area from the type of water division line (climatic system) connects in direct connection with infiltration from rainfalls in which the natural factors (recharge) play the main role in forming the system of groundwater, in addition to the artificial factors (irrigation), and these factors yield three periods of the obvious terminal changes of the levels in hydrologic year (descending, stability, ascending). However, groundwater is renewable because of stability in the situations of this water, and its discharge to hydrodynamic net of groundwater in Al-kabir al-shimali and Al-snobar rivers and in the Mediterranean Sea as well.
This study deals with the determination of total mercury concentration in the water taken from three sites on Al-Kabeer Al-Shemaly River ( near the industrial area and Al- Damat Lake, and 16 Tishreen Lake), also the effect of some physio-chemical p arameters including: DO, pH, T °C. of water in the three sites was studied. Results showed that the total mercury concentration was low in general, where the medium concentration in the three studied sites was 0.29 ppb and it was less than the permission level of total mercury in the surface water(> 10 ppb), the higher value of the medium concentration of total mercury(0.35, 0.31, 0.21)ppb was recorded in the Industrial Area, Damat Lake, then 16 Tishreen Lake, respectively. For the changes in the total concentration of mercury in the three studied sites during seasons of a year, was higher in Summer comparing with other seasons. The results showed positive correlation coefficient between the total mercury concentration and temperature, pH value, but it was negative with DO in Summer.
