Question

How does deforestation increase the chance of floods in a biome

Answer 1

Answer:

Deforestation increase the chance of floods in a biome because whenever there is heavy rainfall in an area, and if there are no trees in that area then the water will overflow as due to trees most of the water is absorbed by them. Thus we must not do deforestation and plant more and more trees.

Answer 2

Deforestation plays many roles in the flooding equation because trees prevent sediment runoffs and forests hold more water than farms or grasslands.

The flood equation is simple. If a river cannot handle the load of water it is required to carry, it will rise above its banks. This is when floods occur.
