Abstract
Water is the essential product for life and is part of the essential constitution of living cells; it helps to realize all the vital operations. Water is a cosmic element, just as the sun and the earth.
With population growth in the Souf region, the needs of habitats and water farmers increase. These requirements cause negative consequences for the serene life Souafa; the upwelling phenomenon of the water table has taken very alarming proportions during the late twentieth century.
In our study, we interested in the mechanism of the drawdown of the aquifer waterOued Souf CTand irrational consequences of overexploitation of the aquifer on the environment of the region.
