Özet:

 

Soil loss and sediment yield are estimated for the basins of  the Western Black Sea region of Turkey with different prediction  models.  The universal soil loss equation (USLE) is the first model  applied in this study.  Due to the lack of reliable measurement data,  the results determined by the application of the USLE using weighted  average factors are compared with the results from geographical  information system supported USLE predictions undertaken in the TEFER  studies performed in the region.  Secondly, the modified universal  soil loss equation (MUSLE) is applied for direct determination of  sediment yield.  Finally, the universal equation is expressed with  various proposed powers to increase accuracy after regression analysis  is applied to the data obtained from the USLE method with weighted  averaged factors.  It is concluded that the prediction of sediment  yield by the USLE using weighted average factors gives quick and  accurate estimates.
