Floods occur due to overflowing rivers, intense rains, thaws, and rising tides. tidal waves, typhoons, hurricanes, etc. Floods often cause damage to homes, businesses, crops, communications, etc. since the populations traditionally live along rivers and coasts It seems that currently, due to climate change, catastrophic phenomena favorable to flooding are increasing. Main causes of flooding - Differential heating between land and water (cold drop) - Monsoons/typhoons/hurricanes - Thaws - Heavy rains - Tidal waves or tsunamis - Human occupation of flood zones Flood effects - Loss of life/injuries/drowning, etc. - Damage and destruction of buildings, bridges, roads, power plants/grids, etc. - Agricultural and livestock damage/loss of animals and crops - Contamination of drinking water - Infectious diseases - Economic crises, impoverishment Flood defenses - Dams - Pipelines - Waterworks - Diversion of river channels - Channel drainage - Prohibition of buildings in flood zones - Specks - Metal barriers - Reservoirs - Study on the consequences of climate change - Hydrological alerts - Mapping of historical floods - Detection and forecast systems - Weather alerts/install automatic weather sensors - Reforestation around flood-prone areas -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------- - If you live in a risk area, pay attention to the weather forecasts and act accordingly: avoid going out, traveling or even, if the threat is serious, try to evacuate the place... And if you have to go out and face the storm, take a good life jacket with you...
