A dam is a barrier built across a river to control water flow. It stores water in a reservoir, helping with drinking supply, irrigation, flood control, and hydroelectric power. From concrete giants to arch and earth-filled designs, dams support cities and farms. They also come with trade-offs—changing river flow and impacting aquatic life. Still, they’re a key part of how we manage water today. 💧⚡️ - #dam #waterpower #hydroelectric #infrastructure #earthscience | How History Is Created

FacebookHow History Is Created
A dam doesn’t just control water—it transforms the entire landscape around a river. 🌊🏞️ Upstream, it creates a reservoir that floods valleys, forests, and sometimes entire communities, flattening what was once a flowing river into a still body of water. Downstream, with less water and sediment, the riverbed can shrink and erode, reshaping the land over time. It’s a powerful reminder of how human engineering can redefine nature itself.
