Question

Explain how deforestation leads to reduced rainfall?

Answer 1

Deforestation:

Deforestation is the process of cutting trees and clearing lands.

Explanation:

1. Rain is one of the most important aspects of the ecosystem.
2. Water vapor condenses in the Earth's atmosphere to form clouds, thereby forming precipitation.
3. Trees are the main cause of water evaporation.
4. It leads to less water absorption from the soil and makes it difficult to form clouds, which indirectly affects the water cycle and reduces precipitation.
5. The lessening of trees disturbs the transpiration process and water cycle, this changes rainfall patterns.
6. It causes soil erosion on this soil surface, which results in a drier climate in one place and floods in other areas.
