Question

How susceptible is this area to flooding compared to the mississippi river delta marshes and give a reason for your answer.?

Answer 1

Warning ! This answer doesn't come from me, i just made a google research and i think it's well explained :

" Orick is not as susceptible because there is a greater amount of vegetation creating anatural levee and the elevation of the town is 20-30 feet, which is higher than the 3 feet ofelevation in the Mississippi Delta."

Hope this helps !
