A dam can prevent flooding by impounding large amounts of water behind it. Once impounded, the water can be released at a moderate rate that doesn't threaten people or property along the water course downstream.
They store large amounts of water so that when there is no rain and your crops are too dry you can get water from the dam and it gets water from the river and rain.
The dams keep the water from running downstream so it soaks into the ground and increases the water table.
There are many ways in which you can conserve and help nature. Five points include conserving water, conserving oil, recycle, conserving the forests, and switching to solar power.
the importance of dams in our country is to stop the flow of water,generate hydroelectricity and does help for the diversion of water. these are of different types such as timber dams ,masonry dams etc . different dams perform different functions and roles .

It helped them by only giving the Kushites a bit of water at a time.
PERENNIAL STREAMS SHOULD BE IDENTIFIED. Thereafter Check Dams should be built thereupon to block & store water after certain gaps. This help water to percolate to the water table and also provide small water stores at regular intervals which can be utilised by the humans and animals. This will also assist in stopping of soil erosion which is a major problem in the hills.
You breathe out less water and therefore don't breathe out any steam with water in it. This means you are conserving water.
Dams help the water from a river to not over flow. Not sure if this answers ur question.
Pros are that dams usually have power generators inside that make electricity from the fast moving waters. Dams also create recreational water areas and help control the water flow to other areas downstream of the dam.
They controlled their floods by creating canals and lakes to help hold the water when a flood occured.
The forst also acts as a natural absorber and allows it to seep. When forests are flooded, the soil absorbs the water and hence forests help in controlling floods.
there is sand
They stop the natural flow of the water and can also cause a greater flow than previously possible by releasing the stored water.
