Q

Flooding causes

A

Changed the rural landscape so water goes into embankments instead of going naturally onto the flood planes - water goes very quickly downhill when flooding into towns
Vegitation around river being changed to flat grass land so water travels very quickly over it instead of being soaked up by wild vegitation
