Answer:
deforestation leads to flood because forests hold more water than agricultural crops.
it leaves more impact of raindrops on soil leading to soil erosion.
the roots of trees hold more water and slow down the speed of the water.
the release of sediment due to deforestation has a bigger impact on floods.
the eroded sediment will not only choke river but will also cause mudflow that is much more destructive that normal flood...
hope it will help u...!!
plz mark it as a brainlist answer..!!

- Deforestation plays several roles in the flooding equation because trees prevent sediment runoff and forests hold and use more water than farms or grasslands.Tree roots absorb water from the soil, making the soil drier and able to store more rainwater.
