In the case of large unstable mountain slopes, the spatial repartition of the saturated zones influence the pressure repartitions in the massif and the slope stability. This contribution proposes an evaluation of water origin and pressure transit time of groundwater flows from hydrochemical and isotopic measurements. The objective is to propose...

Water chemical analysis of 100 springs from the Orco and the Tinée valleys (Western Italy and Southern France) and a 7 year groundwater chemistry monitoring of the 5 main springs were performed. All these springs drain from crystalline rock slopes. Some of these drain from currently active gravitational slope deformations. All groundwaters...
