Résumé

The analysis of the deuterium excess valueis found in samples from 43 springs and wells to the southeast of Sierra Nevada shows: (a) a relatively scarce seasonal variability, when compared to the precipitation data, and (b) a positive correlation with the average altitude of the recharge areas. From (a) can be deduced an important integrating and mixing effect in the carbonate alpujárride aquifers, as well as a flow system nearer to the diffuse type than to the karstic "sensu stricto" one. The (b) effect illustrates on the importance of evaporation processes previous to the infiltration, mainly affecting the precipitations of mediterranean origin.
