Abstract :
[en] In this work, we studied the impact of agricultural pollution on surface water quality at the scale of a rural catchment situated in the Northwestern part of Tunisia. We therefore used a modelling approach involving the deterministic and physically based model PEGASE, to give a better description of water quality, quantifying "pressure-impact" relationships and taking into account future climatic change scenarios.
