Global warming is related to climate and is a global phenomenon. Even though there are regional cold snaps (weather), the average global temperature (climate) continues to increase even during different regions' winter months, the two scientists went on to explain.
It is estimated that groundwater flooding affects a few hundred thousand properties in the UK. Groundwater flooding occurs as a result of water rising up from the underlying rocks or from water flowing from abnormal springs.
Although prior ground saturation increases the flash flood risk, many flash floods occur when the ground is not saturated. Flash floods can and do occur with dry soils and drought conditions. Hydrologic influences of the ground surface can have a major impact on the timing, location, and severity of flash flooding.lthough prior ground saturation increases the flash flood risk, many flash floods occur when the ground is not saturated.
