Hydrological variability of the Soummam watershed (Northeastern Algeria) and the possible links to climate fluctuations
(IF 0.96; Q2) International audience The long-term variability of rainfall in the Soummam watershed (NE Algeria) has been analysed over the past 108 years using continuous wavelet method in order to identify the interannual modes controlling the rainfall variability. Statistical analyses of rainfall...
