The steppe climate is generally characterized by its heterogeneity. The lower semi-arid： 300 mm to 400 mm per year; The arid higher： 200 mm to 300 mm per year; The arid lower： between 100 mm and 200 mm per year. Its wide analysis of a region is based on data provided by weather stations; a summary of the climate study area was analyzed with representative stations （Ain Sefra, El Aricha, Ras el-Ma, Saf-Saf）. This steppe is in various states of degradation, consisting of Stipa tenacissima, Artemisia herba alba, Biscutella didyma, Spartium junceum and Lepidium glastifolium, etc..展开更多

The semiarid and sometimes arid climate has been defined and confirmed from a bioclimatic point of view. The pedological approach used shows a soil with sandy to silty-sandy texture, favoring regression of the vegetation and a halophilic vegetation set up. In this study, we analyze the floristic composition of the northern region of Hammam Boughrara using multiple floristic surveys conducted at three stations along the Tafna wadi. Dominated by Mediterranean and Saharo-Sindian elements, the relatively poor flora (88 species in total) is biologically characterized by a clear dominance of therophytes (>33%) and chamaephytes (>19%) to the detriment of phanerophytes.展开更多

The response model shows that the precipitation is the most important factor influencing the rate of solutional denudation except the lithology, the relief etc., but it is an integrational action on the solution process; at the same time, temperature acts as a threshold in bringing the precipitation into play. These suggest that firstly, the solutional denudation process is a comprehensive response to the multiple factors; secondly, karst solution is a complex response process to the climate, and as an integrated exogenic process under the bioclimate.展开更多

Therefore, the current paper tends to tackle an analytical study of the dynamics of ecosystems in both states: El-Gor in the south-east and El-Bouihi in the southern-west of Tlemcen. To carry out this study it was necessary to present the bioclimatic context based on weather data to perform bioclimatic syntheses (diagram ombrothermic, climagramme rainfall Emberger). By comparison between old and recent periods (1913-1938) and (1984-2009), respectively, for the region of El-Gor and (1913-1938) and (1970-1990) for the El station-Bouihi, there is a net decrease in rainfall and higher temperatures at the new periods, which means that the study areas are moving towards the driest floors. The interpretation of multidimensional treatments AFC (Factor Analysis of Correspondences) vegetation helps to determine the existing affinities between the different taxa. These biostatistical analyses help to highlight the different factors often responsible for the dynamic regressive most cases.展开更多
