How do levees actually cause flooding?

When levees are built along a section of the river, the water will rise higher, then the water will flood in a different place that did not flood before the levee was built. Many natural flood plains have been cut off by levees. That is why cities flood more because the high water is going to go somewhere. Levees don't stop high water. They just cause it to move somewhere else.


What is the difference between a flood and a ebb?

A flood tide refers to the rising tide as water moves toward the shore, whereas an ebb tide is the receding tide as water moves away from the shore. Flood tides can lead to higher water levels, while ebb tides result in lower water levels.


What does flood water do to the ground?
