These samples were analyzed for major ions and stable and radioactive water isotopes (\u03b42H, \u03b418O, and 3H). With decreasing rainfall from climate change in Morocco, it is crucial to assess the sustainability of groundwater reserves. This shortage leads to the degradation of water and soil quality. To ensure sustainable water management and preserve the environment in the study area, it is necessary to assess groundwater quality for drinking and irrigation, take precautions, and establish management plans. This study assessed groundwater quality using two water quality index methods (WQI and IWQI). Several natural processes control groundwater mineralization, including the dissolution of evaporite and carbonate minerals, cation exchange phenomena, evaporation, and seawater intrusion. According to the results obtained using the WQI method, all groundwater samples in the study area are generally of poor quality and must be treated before being used for domestic purposes. Based on the results obtained by the IWQI method, the samples are suitable for use as irrigation water, especially for plants resistant to high salinity concentrations. Stable isotope measurements (\u03b42H and \u03b418O) indicate that Atlantic precipitation continuously recharges the recharge areas of the Essaouira Basin. Thus, the low values of tritium (3H) in groundwater mean that the freshwater in the Essaouira Basin is ancient.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/limnolrev24040030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,12]],"date-time":"2024-11-12T08:12:39Z","timestamp":1731399159000},"page":"520-542","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Assessment of Groundwater Quality in the Semi-Arid Environment: Implications of Climate Change"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2397-2422","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Otman","family":"El Mountassir","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"High Energy and Astrophysics Laboratory, Faculty of Sciences Semlalia, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakech 40000, Morocco"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0041-9832","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammed","family":"Bahir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"High Energy and Astrophysics Laboratory, Faculty of Sciences Semlalia, Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakech 40000, Morocco"}]},{"given":"Samir","family":"Hakimi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geology, Faculty of Sciences Dhar Mahraz, Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah University, Fez 30000, Morocco"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6012-8474","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Turki kh.","family":"Faraj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Soil Science, College of Food and Agricultural Sciences, King Saud University, Riyadh 11362, Saudi Arabia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2178-7848","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paula M.","family":"Carreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Superior T\u00e9cnico, Campus Tecnol\u00f3gico e Nuclear, Universidade T\u00e9cnica de Lisboa, 1049-001 Lisboa, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Behnassi, M., Al-Shaikh, A.A., Gurib-Fakim, A., Barjees Baig, M., and Bahir, M.
