Due to damming the water it will not flow as fast and since it wont flow as fast it will cause the water level to rise.

Answer:

Explanation: When a dam is built to create a reservoir, some impacts on water cycle would be like:-

  • Rate of vaporization will increase in the local area.
  • Speed of flow of water slows down, so percolation of water in the soil will increase.
  • Water storage in the reservoir will improve agriculture in the local area.
  • Vegetation at the construction site will affect in negative way.
