O F FUNDAMENTAL importance for the development of agriculture in Turkey is a better understanding of its climate. With that end in view the author recently classified the climates of Turkey according to Thornthwaite's original system.' In the present paper he applies Thornthwaite's new classification,2 with special reference to the variability of moisture regions. Comparison with the earlier system and with other classifications shows that the new system reflects the true conditions more accurately. It deserves much attention in Turkey because it makes possible the determination of the limits of droughts, and of their severity and probable frequency, and provides the means for calculating water deficiency
