Text Explanation

FLOOD



Floods are the event and setting the mainland (which is usually dry) because of the increased volume of water. Floods can occur because of excessive water caused by big rain, excessive river water, or the damage of the river dam.
In many very dry regions in the world, the land has a poor water absorption power of, or the amount of rainfall exceeds the ability of soil to absorb water. When it rains, a sudden flood often happens because the dry water channel is filled with water.

Floods can be caused by two things, can result from human activity or natural phenomena result from the extreme form of prolonged rain. The main cause of most of the flooding is the excessive rainfall. The rain may occur seasonally-region covering large areas, or from local storm producing rainfall of high intensity. Most floods are caused by the processes of the atmosphere or the ocean and high speed air currents. Melting snow (happens in the 4-seasons State) is another major cause of flooding.

On the other hand, human activities can also be a potential disaster such as floods and forest logging that is getting crowded. For the classically logging, though not exactly true, the main suspect of flooding are farmers, who cut down forests in upstream watershed. Settlement and compacting the soil does not give a chance of rain water to seep into the ground. Most water, then flow on the ground. Moreover, the river is supported by an increasingly shallow and narrow river crowded with inhabitants, and the blockage of water upstream area. Then came the flood. In fact, once the flood happens in an area, the next flood will be easier again. Because the pore surface covered with mud so that the soil water is not able to penetrate.

Floods can cause some losses, both moral and material. As property in the form of electronic devices can not be used anymore because of submerged and other household equipment that is damaged. Floods that are not too big do not give too bad impact to human lives. But if the flood disaster in a large scale, it can also impact on human life.
