This article has been prepared in order to point out the sediment yields or sediment discharge of some rivers or streams of Turkey. Turkey covers an area of 780 000 km sq; nearly 12 per çent of the total land is closed basins. There has been no publication appeared on the sediment yield in Turkey, though the early data were began to be recorded since 1939. On the other hand, we do not have any records about some of the streams and rivers. İn addition, the validity of some of the data may be questionable, because of short records and variability of the sediment sampling methods.
