Floodplain Areas 
A floodplain is an area of land adjacent to a river, stream, or other
water body that is prone to flooding
...These areas play a crucial role in the ecosystem by providing habitat
for a variety of plant
and animal species, as well as serving important functions in flood control and water quality improvement
...deposits Diverse plant and animal species Important habitat for migratory birds Buffer against erosion and sedimentation
Importance of Floodplain Areas Floodplain areas provide a range of ecosystem services that benefit both humans and the environment
...Offers opportunities for fishing, birdwatching, and other outdoor activities Threats to Floodplain Areas Despite
their importance, floodplain areas are under threat from a variety of human activities, including: Urban development Agricultural expansion Deforestation Channelization
...Conservation and
Management Efforts to conserve and manage floodplain areas are essential to protect their ecological value and ensure their continued benefits to society
