France . Catchments lie on four main types of sandstone. Information was acquired for each catchment using a geographic information system GIS and spatially distributed databases. Sulphate concentration is mainly negatively correlated to the annual rainfall and positively to the relative area covered by conifers in the catchment. Nitrate is positively correlated to altitude. Sodium Cl and Si concentrations are strongly inter-correlated and negatively related to the annual precipitation and the relative area of the conglomerate layer in the catchment. Calcium Mg ANC Acid Neutralising Capacity and pH are negatively correlated to precipitation and positively correlated to the relative area of the sandstone layer containing dolomitic nodules. This study emphasizes the role of annual rainfall amounts in controlling stream chemistry at base flow. streamwater acidification spatial analysis Vosges sandstone Résumé - Facteurs environnementaux influenẹant la composition chimique des eaux sur substrats gréseux dans les Vosges.
