Résumé

The springs of Aravissos gush out at the south foot of mount Paiko. The water resources of these springs are used mainly for covering the necessities of the city of Thessaloniki. For this purpose Thessaloniki Water Supply & Sewerage Company (ΕΥΑΘ) constructed, two decades ago, the pumping-station of Aravissos. This paper presents the results of the research conducted for the study of the recharge - operation mechanism of the springs and the potential of the water supplying aquifer. For the study of the recharge - operation mechanism of the springs we evaluated data coming from the extensive drilling programs conducted in the area and from the substantial bibliographical references. Respectively, for the study of the water supply potential of the aquifer we evaluated the data coming from gradual pumping of the pumping-station's drillings and from the flow measurements of the spring gushing out at the study area. The contribution of this study on the management of the water supplies of the karstic aquifer of Aravissos can become determi natively important.
