Although there is no proven correlation between flooding events and increased seismicity, increased pore pressure due to percolation or increased crustal load from reservoirs residing on fault zones is known to decrease friction along the fault plane and increase likelihood of rupture. There is a possibility that flood could increase crustal load and cause rupture however due to short duration and decreased extent of percolation it is unlikely that flooding will increase the chance of an earthquake occurring.
Floods pick up all of the pollution on the ground they cover. So, floods lessen clean water.
cause the animals cant swim ^ this is wrong, that would be how the floods affected the biosphere
Upstream floods are similar to flash floods. Large amounts of rain in a short period of time. Downstream floods are produced by storms of long duration that saturate the soil and produce increased runoff.
The building of the Aswan Dam project increased the opportunity to engage in agriculture by establishing a steady water supply through droughts and floods. Sugar, rice and wheat production has increased significantly.

*affect
It floods
They dont?
I recommend checking with local news sources or websites like the National Weather Service for real-time updates on current flood locations. Stay informed about any warnings or advisories in your area.
Japan and Indonesia.
Increases it
Floods, and because of global warming they have increased.
floods affect the rainforest's by flooding the trees so all the water spills out and hurts or affects the animals and habitats
it floods them
It destroyed the crops.
it gets soggy
