Question

explain how forests prevent floods.​

Answer 1

Answer: Forest acts as a natural absorber of rainwater and allows it to seep because of roots of trees. When rainwater falls on leaves of trees and plants, it does not fall directly on the ground. It drips slowly on the forest ground (does not stagnate) and hence prevent floods.

Answer 2

Forest is a natural absorber of rain water. It allows rain water to seep through. The roots of the trees absorb the water and prevent it from flowing away. The trees present in the forest prevents the rain from directly hitting the ground which may result in floods. It rather hits the ground slowly. Hence, trees in the forest slow down the movement of running water and thus help in preventing floods.
