Do humans cause floods?
Humans can cause floods, for example when a reservoir is created by a dam. Some Human recourses that impact floods are things like houses and roads, when humans build houses and roads in the drainage basin, they put impermeable surfaces on top of the soil. This means that water cannot soak into the soil, so instead, the rainwater runs very quickly over ground and reaches the river all at once, creating a flood. Another thing that causes floods is when humans cut down trees in the drainage basin, it makes it harder for rain water to soak into the soil. So instead rainwater runs very quickly over ground and, again, reaches the river all at once. So the answer to your question is yes, humans can cause floods.
