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.
What is a wall or barrier that is natural or artificial a natural one is made of of molten rock as it cools an artificial one is built to prevent flooding?
A natural barrier made of molten rock as it cools is called a lava dam, formed by solidified lava flows. An artificial barrier built to prevent flooding is called a levee, which is a raised embankment constructed along the banks of rivers or lakes to contain or divert floodwaters.

flooding
What is a wall or barrier that is natrual or artificial a natrual one is made of of molten rock as it cools an artificial one is built to prevent flooding?
A dike. Not a dam.
How is flooding controlled in Egypt today?
Flooding in Egypt is primarily controlled through the use of the Aswan High Dam on the Nile River. The dam helps regulate water flow, store water during periods of heavy rains, and prevent flooding downstream. Additionally, drainage systems and canal networks are used to manage excess water in urban areas.
What were the four goals of the Aswan High Dam?
