Characteristics of the Oualidia-Sidi Moussa lagoonal complex
Vol. 12 No. 1 (2022)The Oualidia - Sidi Moussa lagoon complex (Moroccan Atlantic coast) is a unique natural marine ecosystem, of great national and international importance, with a great biological and ecological diversity and is recognized worldwide as a Ramsar site. This complex is a real "open air laboratory" for national and international marine scientific research and life sciences.
This special issue is dedicated to this lagoon complex and describes the characteristics of this coastal marine ecosystem. -
Climate variability, change and impact in southern Morocco: Evidence and understanding
Vol. 11 No. 2 (2021)The CHARISMA international network has made a special effort to reconstruct past and recent climates, their variability, and impacts. Multi-proxy approaches are used to study the paleoclimate record of the past 2000 years, focusing on the last Century. The results of this program and other studies provide a rich context for interpretation in the drylands of southern Morocco.
This special issue is carried out within the framework of the CHARISMA project with the support of the Hassan II Academy of Science and Technology.

The Marine Environment of the Moroccan Atlantic Coast
Vol. 11 No. 1 (2021)The Northwest African upwelling area is one of the significant coastal upwelling regions in the world. As in other major upwelling areas, strong equatorward marine winds are dominant in determining the strength and duration of upwelling events.
The upwelling activity along the Moroccan Atlantic coast (21°N-36°N) is of great importance. It is the source of the national fishery resources (mainly pelagic resources).
This volume of "Frontiers in Science and Engineering" describe this phenomenon both for its physical/chemical/biological aspects and its impact on fishery resources.

Devonian to Lower Carbonferous stratigraphy and facies of the south-Western Moroccan Meseta:Implcations for paleogeography and structural interpretattion
Vol. 10 No. 2 (2021)This Journal is the second special issue dedicated to Moroccan geology (Western Moroccan Meseta). It's focusing on Devonian to the Lower Carboniferous stratigraphy and facies new data, their paleogeography, and structural interpretation during the Variscan/Hercynian orogeny.
This document testifies to extensive cooperation between more than twenty Moroccan academics from Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakech, and their European counterparts (German: Muenster, Berlin, Köln, Greifswald, Frankfurt, Hamburg; Spanish: Madrid; Belgian: Brussels).
Volume 10, Number 2 describes the geological series of the following regions: Benahmed (SW central Morocco massif), Mechra Ben Abbou (Rehamna), Eastern Jebilet, Mzoudia, and Skoura (South Meseta zone).

Vol. 10 No. 1 (2020)
This Journal is a special issue dedicated to Moroccan geology (Western Moroccan Meseta), focusing on new stratigraphic and facies data from the Devonian to the Lower Carboniferous and their implications in understanding paleogeography and structural interpretation during the Variscan/Hercynian orogeny. It includes results and explanations of research undertaken by a joint Moroccan-German team in the framework of a partnership between the Mohammed V University of Rabat (Morocco) and the Westphalian Wilhelms-University of Muenster (Germany), within the framework of an agreement between the CNRST (Morocco) and the DFG (Germany).
Volume 10, Number 1 describes the geological series of the following regions: Oued Cherrat, Mrirt, and Imouzer-du-Kandar.
