This database contains data on annual sediment yields in worldwide rivers and reservoirs, searchable by river, country and continent.

The database was compiled from different sources by HR Wallingford, UK, on behalf of the FAO Land and Water Development Division. It is currently in a test phase. Please direct any comments and suggestions concerning the database to Jean-Marc Faures

In the fields below, enter the name of the river, the country, or the continent for which you would like to see summary sedimentation data. Column headers can be clicked for an explanation of the data. By enabling the option "reservoir" you can restrict your search to those datasets that have been derived from reservoir sedimentation measurements. Clicking on 'View !' in the last column shows the complete sedimentation record.
