Heavy rains cause river floods. Dams help to control the water flow, and levees are built to control the water height so that they don't flood the roads.
floods occur when a lot of rain falls to the ground and the rivers and streams overflow.
people use dams and levees to stop the water from overflowing into the cities. dams stop a lot of water at once in one area. the dams can do many different things, but the purpose is the same, to stop water from going somewhere that people don't want it to go. levees are structures that stop water in one place, and they are sometimes natural. they are made of dirt usually, and they stop the water, much like a dam.
What causes a river to flood is when the water level gets high because of rain and storms and then it gets higher then the dam and floods over.Dams and levees are a structure that keeps water in a place.They relate to flooding because if they burst or the water level gets to high the water flows over them.
A lot of rain water can flood a river. A dam is something that blocks the water from flowing.A levees is a embankment built to prevent overflow of a river.
if there were no dams the water levels in rivers would be lower and water would flow faster but when it floods it will not go as high and places will not flood. .
Rain water can flood a river and he water can overflow other the bank. A dam is a barrier constructed to hold back water and raise its level. A levee is an embankment to build prevent the overflow of a river.
Rivers flood because of rain and rivers flowing fast. dams help stop the flooding by holding back the water and only letting a little bit of water out at a time.
Leaves and dams relate to flooding because dams block the water from getting somewhere and if there is to much water behind a dam it could callopse. Leaves can block where water is sopose to go.
In less developed countries, humans are particularly sensitive to flood casualties because of high population density, absence of zoning regulations, lack of flood control, and lack of emergency response infrastructure and early warning systems.

A river might flood because of to much rain water or melting snow. Dams connect to flooding because they are what attempts to prevent the river from flooding.
when a rivers dam breaks the river then overfills and causes floods if a dam has a levee it can circulate water properly into rivers to prevent to much or not enough water
Floods happen when it rains and and the water from mountains washes down. As it does it pools up and raises the water level derastically. Because of dams and levees, the water cannot flow in its normal path. So the water pools up until it flows over the dam or levee.
A dam is a structer that is created in a river or like in order to stop the water from flowing and it creates a big lake full of water. A levee is a structer that keeps the water from flooding the nearby towns/houses
Rain and extra water causes floods. Dams and levees would effect flooding because on one side of a dam, the water builds up, which could cause flooding on one side. A dam is a wall of stone, concrete, or wood, that blocks up water and keeps it on one side. A levee is a man made slope or wall that confines water and keeps it from flooding the surrounding area.
A flood happens when the is excess water in lakes and other bodies of water. A flood can happen when there is excess rain. Dams and Leeves can control water and prevent flooding. A Leeve can control water flow and distribute it.
I think that the floods are caused by a lot of rain and water flowing into the river. A dam is something that holds water back because the river slopes. a levee is a hill full of water.
A flood is caused by lots of water from rain and then the water overflows and goes all the land. A levee is an embankment that protects low-lying areas from flooding. A dam is a barrier placed in a river to either generate electricity, create a lake, or to control floods from traveling down the river.
Rivers flood when there is to much water. Like when there is really big storm and they sometimes they flood in the spring because all the snow is melting.
A dam is a barrier that impounds water or underground streams. a Levee is an elongated naturally occurring ridge or artificially constructed fill or wall, which regulates water levels. The causes of floods are too much water that goes into a lake and starts to flow on ground levels. Levees and dams relate to flooding because they both help stop floods.
A mass amount of rain or of melting snow can cause a river to flood. A levee is an embankment that is built to help prevent flooding while a dam is a barrier, usually made out of concrete, hold back water and raise the water level. Dams can be used to create energy or simply as a water supply. Dams are related to flooding because if it rains a lot or the snow melts really fast and they don't open up the dam, the river can flood. Levees are related to flooding because they help prevent it by making the ground level along the bank higher.
A flood happens when a lot of water is in one place, it doesn't just have to be a heavy rainfall. So a dam a levee both keep a lot of water in one place but they control the water flow so it wont flood.
Heavy down pour causes river floods dams help to control the water flow and leaves are built to control the water height so that they dont flood the roads
Heavy rains cause river floods. Dams help to control the water flow, and levees are built to control the water height so that they don't flood the roads.
Dams are floods, it holds back water which if the dam breaks a flood will occur because if the dam is weak it won't hold for very long but if the dam is supported w/ more wood the stronger it shall be.
levees and dams are used to sow down the water and then stop it for flooding over the shore.
ReplyDeletea river floods because of rain water and sudden increases in water levels.
When there is like a rain storm it will cause a runoff and it will flow into a river and it will cause to flood if there is to much water in it.
ReplyDeletethey stop the water from flooding the shore/ground.
ReplyDeleteand if they dont have dams or levee
1. A river overflows when it rains to much and the water starts to overflow onto the land.
ReplyDelete2. Levees help prevent flooding and a dam works like a barrier.

ReplyDeleteIt could get clogged by leaves, sticks, or beavers.
ReplyDeleteA river floods when the dam like gets stuck and nothing can go by and then it over floods
ReplyDeleteA lot of rain water can flood a river. A dam is something that blocks the water from flowing.A levees is a embankment built to prevent overflow of a river.
ReplyDeleteit could get clogged mostly by sticks and maybe animals leaves and grass and stuff like that.
ReplyDeletealot of rain and sticks and mud floods the river alot.
ReplyDeleteWhen it rains to much the water goes over the bank and floods the place.
ReplyDeleteIf the river floods too much the dam would over flow.
ReplyDeleteHeavy rain causes the water to overflow which can brake the levee and the dam altogether.
ReplyDeleteif there were no dams the water levels in rivers would be lower and water would flow faster but when it floods it will not go as high and places will not flood. .
ReplyDeleteRain water can flood a river and he water can overflow other the bank. A dam is a barrier constructed to hold back water and raise its level. A levee is an embankment to build prevent the overflow of a river.
ReplyDeleteRain water can flood and the dams can break and so can the walls.
ReplyDeleteRivers flood because of heavy rain and streams going in too fast. Also dams help stopp flooding because it only lets in a bit at a time.
ReplyDeleteI beleive heavy rain

The dams are a big part of flooding because they stop water from gettoing through to the other side.
ReplyDeleteA flood happens when it rains and the water goes over a damn or over a leeve and goes into the town.
ReplyDeleteThe levees are related to flooding because rain adds more water to the river and the river flows very fast so the river will flood
ReplyDeletewhen a rivers dam breaks the river then overfills and causes floods if a dam has a levee it can circulate water properly into rivers to prevent to much or not enough water
ReplyDeleterain makes the water rise over the dirt and grass and land.
ReplyDeleteThe flood happens when it rains alot and the water goes over a dam and floods the town.
ReplyDeletethe flood happens when it goes over the dams.
ReplyDeleterivers over flow when the water gets to high
ReplyDeletewater over leaks when levees crack or break
Floods happen when it rains and and the water from mountains washes down. As it does it pools up and raises the water level derastically. Because of dams and levees, the water cannot flow in its normal path. So the water pools up until it flows over the dam or levee.

ReplyDeleteA flood happens when it rains too much.
ReplyDeleteA levee and dam help keep flooding down by containing water.
Floods are caused when the water table rises and the body of water cannot contain the amount of water in it. Dams help control water.
ReplyDeleteIf it rains a lot in a period of time it causes flood and also runoff is possible... dams and levees help prevent from floods happening.
ReplyDeleteHeavy down pour causes river floods dams help to control the water flow and leaves are built to control the water height so that they dont flood the roads
ReplyDeleteTo much water makes them flood
ReplyDeleteRain water can flood and the dams can break and so can the walls.
ReplyDeletea river floods by a lot of rain and when a dam breaks and water flows out fast
ReplyDeleteHeavy rains cause river floods. Dams help to control the water flow, and levees are built to control the water height so that they don't flood the roads.
ReplyDeleteit rains and the water gets higher and higher above the surface and it floods.
ReplyDeletethe dams can do many different stuff floods are coused by water and rain
ReplyDeleterivers flood because when it rains to much and the water rises to high and floods so floods are high waters
ReplyDeleteDams stop the water from getting to deep and flooding thing like towns roads and others
ReplyDeletea river can flood if there is tons of runoff after terrible rainstorm. Dams an Levees help control water floods.
ReplyDeletea lot of rain water
ReplyDeletedams and levees are made of concreat and dirt
they could cause flooding because they hold back water
rivers over flow when there is to much water.
ReplyDeletedams are used to control the water flow
Dams are floods, it holds back water which if the dam breaks a flood will occur because if the dam is weak it won't hold for very long but if the dam is supported w/ more wood the stronger it shall be.
ReplyDeleteIf the river floods to much it could over floww........
ReplyDeleteWhen the river floods it most likely overflows....
ReplyDeleteWell they are made to hold lots of water so everything will not flood over the surface.
