The endemic Moroccan species Argania spinosa is considered the most grazed tree in its distribution area. Since grazing exerts an important effect on plant performances, we attempted to explore impact of A. spinosa. Thus, performed a comparative field experiment where seasonal variations gas exchange, photochemical efficiency, relative water content, photosynthetic pigment and stomatal features...

Experimental and modelling investigations of supercritical CO2 extraction oil from Argania spinosa L. kernels were conducted at pressure range 200 to 400 bar, temperature 313–333 K a flow rate 0.14 kg/h. Regardless the temperature, highest achievable yield was estimated 0.63 kgoil / kgbiomass. The kinetics modeled with Sovová’s broken intact cells model. type B found be most suited type. Argan ...

Argania spinosa L. endemic to Morocco, is a multipurpose tree with an important socio-economic and ecological interest. The study was carried out in Argan forest Laqliaa municipality, South West which located semi-arid bioclimatic region. objective present diagnosis for the state dynamics of degradation through cartography, GIS socioeconomic analyses between two periods (1986-2018). For this pu...
