There are 3 ways

  1. When no trees are cut down along a river, the river backs up preventing low, lying cities from being flooded.
  2. When no trees are cut down, underground water cannot rise because it is being pumped out and used by trees, preventing flooding and salinity.
  3. Wetlands waters would rise if the trees are cut out of them so leaving them can keep water levels down.
