The following effects are associated with deforestation except

Deforestation is the act of cutting down trees and destroying forests. It has several effects on the environment. Gully erosion, extinction of plant species, and migration of wildlife are some of the negative effects of deforestation. However, an increase in rainfall is not associated with deforestation. In fact, deforestation leads to a decrease in rainfall as trees play a crucial role in the water cycle by absorbing water from the soil and releasing it into the atmosphere through a process called transpiration. Without trees, the soil becomes drier, and there is less moisture in the air, leading to less rainfall.
