Will Runoff will increase as vegetation in the area decreases?
Yes, runoff is likely to increase as vegetation in the area decreases. Vegetation plays a crucial role in absorbing and slowing down rainfall, allowing water to infiltrate into the ground. Without vegetation, more water will run off the surface, leading to increased runoff. This can result in higher risks of flooding and erosion.
Why does flooding occur in many burn areas?
Because after an area has been burned there is little vegetation remaining and vegetation helps the soil to absorb more water. So it follows that if you have an area recently burned and removed of vegetation then that area will be much more prone to flooding due to decreased soil absorption.
