deforestation means less trees. so when trees are less even transpiration is also less which puts total pressure on evaporation for cloud formation reducing rains. on the other hand when there is rain and trees are less rainwater does not seep into the ground as the trees used to bind the soil with their roots and ultimately flows to form floods.

Hey there ❤❤
here's ua answer :
Increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere due to deforestation leads to global warming, as carbondioxide traps the heat rays reflected by the earth. The increase in temperature on the earth disturbs the water-cycle and reduces rainfall.Further, deforestation leads to decrease in the water holding capacity of the soil. So, the movement of water from the soil surface into the ground is reduced which brings the flood.So,deforestation reduce rainfall on the one hand and lead to floods on the other.
hope it helps you
