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.

The study, has Focused on determination of the most important hydrochemical characteristics of water at AL-kabir alshemali estuary area by determination the concentration of nutrient ions (nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, phosphates and silicates) and th e factors affecting them. Water samples were collected from several stations of that area between March 2017 and January 2018. The highest concentrations of nutrient throughout the year were reported at river estuary point (K0), a depression in their concentrations was observed in the station distanced away from the river estuary point, compatible with salinity gradient. River estuary point (K0) formed the main source of nutrients that are distributed to other stations. Nutrient concentrations showed clear gradual depression in winter down to more than 1,000 meters from the estuary point, while the gradient in summer has less extension, It was within the first 50 meters in some monthes.
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 .
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 ra nged 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.
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.
Al-Kabeer Al-Shemale river rises from Aqraa Mountain and coastal mountains, it is considered one of the largest rivers in the coastal area.Its catchment area is 1097 km2, and empties into the sea to the southern of Lattakia.The study aims to determin e the impact of climate change on the river discharge. Since the rainfall is the major factor in the runoff formation in the river catchment, the rainfall changes have been studied in climatic stations located within the catchment and its surroundings, and for a period of time exceeding thirty years. The study found that the general trend of rainfall change and runoff with time is decreasing, declining rainfall values ranged in the studied stations between (0.4-12.5) mm per year, and the runoff reached 0.08m3/s in the year. A mathematical equation, predict river discharge after knowing the values of daily precipitation, has been concluded.
