Where there are no trees, the soil is washed away into rivers causing siltation into the oceans choking coral reefs. The link between deforestation and drought is very significant. The loss of ground cover due to deforestation resulted in flash floods during heavy rainfall.

Explanation:
Plants absorb water from the soil and evaporates it to form clouds through transpirational pull. Deforestation leads to cutting down of trees. As a result less water is absorbed from the soil and it disturbs the water cycle. As water does not condense the formation of clouds becomes difficult which leads to reduced rainfall.
