The most frequently
occurring natural disasters are watercourse and coastal flooding and are rising
in episode more rapidly than any other disaster. The capacity of the earth to
hold excess water reduces due to Urbanization and deforestation.
Floods, one time merely
known as "acts of God" are being quickly improved by the works of
humans.
In a few regions of the
world, flooding is caused by extreme rainwater, such as monsoons, even as in further
parts of the earth, flooding can be caused outside of the rainy season while snowstorm
and ice being to melt in the mountains. That thaw water flows downstream and
cause flooding.
Those areas which are mainly
at risk for floods contain low-lying areas, coastal regions, and communities on
rivers downstream from dams.
