Flooding refers to the overflow of water onto normally dry land, resulting in the inundation of areas that are typically above water levels. This phenomenon can occur due to various factors, such as heavy rainfall, storm surges, rapid snowmelt, or the failure of water control structures like dams and levees. Flooding can lead to significant damage to properties, infrastructure, and the environment, and can pose serious risks to human safety and health. It can vary in duration and intensity, ranging from minor water accumulation to catastrophic deluges that drastically alter landscapes and communities. Flooding is also classified into different types, including flash floods, river floods, coastal floods, and urban floods, depending on the location and causes.
