Prof. Dr. S. KHABBA is part of the physics department. He has skills in micrometeorology and has developed and validated a model for estimating maize ear temperature.

Dr. S. ER-ROUANE has a PhD in hydrogeology. He is responsible for the Sudmed project on management of hydroecologic ressources and member of the Landwater Med network. He has worked on modelling of groundwater dynamics in several sites of Morocco. He has supervised 13 PhD students and carry out researches on applications of isotopy to understand the functing of aquifers.

Dr. N. GUEMOURIA is also part of the fluid mechanic and energetic department. She has worked in Tucson (USA) on operational estimation of energy balance components from remote sensing in semi-arid lands in 2000. She is supervising a Phd on estimation of evapotranspiration at a water basin scale using remote sensing.
