摘要：Considering the limitation of groundwater, population growth, socio-economic development and growing demand for drinking water, as well as drought, Morocco, a country with a semi-arid climate, has launched since the 1960s a program of mobilization of surface waters through the construction of several reservoir dams. Currently, 65% of drinking water is produced from surface resources, mostly dam reservoirs. Nowadays, these structures are confronted with various environmental problems. The result is an alteration in the quality of the water which affects its uses, in particular the production of drinking water. The present work carried out at the Bab Louta dam, whose primary vocation is the supply of drinking water to the city of Taza, aimed to study the water quality of this reservoir. The evolution of physicochemical parameters (Temperature, pH, the electrical conductivity, Dissolved oxygen transparency, the suspended matters, Nitrates, Orthophosphates, and total phosphorus) and the biological descriptor (Chlorophyll a) was followed by a vertical sampling at the deepest point of the reservoir, over a period of 04 months, from May to August 2016. The obtained results show large spatio-temporal variations of the parameters studied, with a water quality ranging from good to excellent.
