- •
A first 3D geological and structural model of the KAS and its extension into north-east Algeria was developed.
- •
A preliminary assessment of the hydraulic significance of the major faults was highlighted by evaluating their influence on groundwater flow in the KAS.
- •
Defendable predictions for the total volume and available resources of the aquifers were provided.
- •
A 3D hydrogeological conceptual model was constructed with a suggestion of possible flow scheme and connection hypothesis between the different units of the KAS.
