Soil can affect flooding by influencing how quickly water is absorbed or runs off the surface. Healthy soil with good structure and organic matter can help absorb more water, reducing surface runoff and the likelihood of flooding. Conversely, compacted or degraded soil can increase runoff and contribute to flooding by preventing water from infiltrating the ground.
