The flow chart illustrates the consequences of deforestation. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features.

SAMPLE ANSWER
The flow chart demonstrates the effects of the removal of forests.
Overall, there are four main consequences resulted from deforestation which eventually leads to flooding and loss of biodiversity.
Initially, the flooding is a result of the heavy logging equipment which turns soil into the hard and baked surface. Those will lead to the run-off of rainwater which causes the flooding. Another consequence is the decline in the number of roots securing the top soil. Subsequently, soil erosion, degradation of vegetable and less biodiversity eventually happen.
Furthermore, the degradation of vegetation could result from the reduced amount of moisture returned to air which will reduce precipitation, increase drought, degrade vegetation and lead to a loss of biodiversity lastly. In addition, the loss of biodiversity is an effect of the loss of microorganisms relying on waste wood because the greater likelihood of burning causes the disappearance of this material. This leads to degraded vegetation.
