How does the urbanization increase the risk of flooding?
Urbanization increases the risk of flooding primarily by replacing natural landscapes with impervious surfaces like roads and buildings, which prevent water from being absorbed into the ground. This leads to increased surface runoff during heavy rainfall, overwhelming drainage systems and waterways. Additionally, urban areas often have altered topographies and reduced vegetation, which further exacerbate flooding risks. Climate change can intensify these effects, resulting in more frequent and severe flooding events.
