Abstract

: Groundwater is the most important source of water supply in Tchamba prefecture. Groundwater quality contaminations have emerged in many geographical areas due to natural environmental processes and human intervention in the geosystems. Hydrochemical evolution of groundwater quality in the study area was investigated. The physicochemical parameters such as major ions were determined. Factor analysis was used to identify key parameters that described groundwater quality in the study area. The first two factors were considered: Factor 1 explained 53.43% of the total variance and translates the natural rainwater recharge and water-soil/rock interaction process. The second factor (F2) explained 22.05% of the total variance and expresses the anthropogenic pressure such as domestic sewage, uncontrolled landfill waste, fertilizers

期刊介绍： JAWRA seeks to be the preeminent scholarly publication on multidisciplinary water resources issues. JAWRA papers present ideas derived from multiple disciplines woven together to give insight into a critical water issue, or are based primarily upon a single discipline with important applications to other disciplines. Papers often cover the topics of recent AWRA conferences such as riparian ecology, geographic information systems, adaptive management, and water policy. JAWRA authors present work within their disciplinary fields to a broader audience. Our Associate Editors and reviewers reflect this diversity to ensure a knowledgeable and fair review of a broad range of topics. We particularly encourage submissions of papers which impart a ''take home message'' our readers can use.
