Predermination of the reservoirs life in Algeria

Abstract
Yearly the deposition of sediments amputates from 2% to 5% of the global water reserve of the hydraulic infrastructure in the Maghreb countries. The aim of the present study is to contribute to the deposit quantification in order to define proper hydrotechnical structures, and to increase their life time (reducing coasts).
Firstly, the author undertakes the information stemming from topo-bathymetric processing of 19 dams in Algeria. He therefore analyses these data with the aim of setting up a simple model for estimating deposits and classifying the Algerian dams.
