In Morocco, the scarcity of rainfall is linked to global warming and to the overexploitation of groundwater due to demographic and socio-economic pressures, which generates a major problem, namely a significant decline of the piezometric level. The goal of this study is to assess the piezometric and rainfall levels of the groundwater in the Angads aquifer, which is one of the most important in the Eastern part of Morocco. To do so, graphs were drawn from the piezometric data of three piezometers, namely AP1, AP2, and AP3 located respectively in the Eastern, Central, and Western part of the country, and from the rainfall data of the Oujda station during the period from 1985 to 2015. The main results revealed a fluctuation in rainfall over time, with an increase recorded in 2009. Indeed, the results of the variation of piezometric levels over the years generally showed a downward trend, especially in the area between the aquifer outlet and the Maghnia plain in Algeria, while the results of the assessment of the piezometric land rainfall levels over time generally show a downward trend. In the face of this decline, effective strategies need to be considered to protect these resources from depletion, including artificial recharge of the aquifer, wastewater reuse which aims to restore an aquifer overexploited by excessive pumping, whose drawdown is detrimental, and multi-purpose water storage.
