gebeurtenis waarbij land tijdelijk of permanent onder water komt te staan
A flood occurs when water overflows from its normal boundaries and covers land that is usually dry, as shown in this image of a street in England submerged under water. Floods matter because they can damage homes, infrastructure, and communities, posing risks to people's safety and property.

Een overstroming is een gebeurtenis waarbij een aanzienlijke hoeveelheid water uit een meer, rivier of zee plaatsen bereikt die normaal gesproken niet onder water staan. Indien dit ernstige vormen aanneemt, spreekt men door de verwoestende uitwerking ook wel van watersnood of ramp. Land dat door een overstroming definitief verloren gaat, noemt men wel verdronken land.
