Causes and Consequences of Flooding
What you need to know
Analyze the specific natural physical factors, heavily including underlying rock geology and topsoil vegetation cover, alongside modern human activities such as intense urbanisation and ecological modification, that jointly cause global rivers to severely flood.
Explain how regular seasonal climatic patterns result in predictable seasonal flooding events, and contrast this with how extreme unpredictable weather events trigger highly localized and devastating flash floods.
Evaluate the diverse positive ecological and severely negative social and economic consequences of massive flooding on highly different demographic groups.
