How does a dam control and or cause flooding?
A dam controls flooding by regulating water flow in rivers and reservoirs, storing excess water during heavy rainfall and releasing it gradually to prevent downstream flooding. However, if a dam is poorly managed or experiences structural failure, it can cause flooding by releasing too much water suddenly. Additionally, if the reservoir behind the dam becomes full, it may lead to controlled releases that can overwhelm downstream areas, resulting in flooding. Proper management and maintenance are crucial to balancing flood control and risk.
