Abstract

The article approaches the study of the karstic forms and slope formations in the median zone of the middle Ouerrha and high Lebene Sofs, located in the central Moroccan Rif and Prerif. The study of the lithological characteristics of the carbonated rocks and the consequent geomorphological evolution makes it possible to explain the genesis of the minor and the major ones, of the Sof’s Karst. The evolution results from the morphogenetic processes acting during the Quaternary and the current processes.
