storage dam Explanation: . STORAGE DAM OR IMPOUNDING DAM It is constructed to create a reservoir to store water during periods when there is huge flow in the river (in excess of demand) for utilisation later during periods of low flow (demand exceeds flow in the river). Water stored in the reservoir is used for irrigation, power generation, water supply etc. By suitable operation, it can also serve as a detention dam. https://theconstructor.org/water-resources/classification-ty... |

peer agreement (net): +1reservoir behind the dam at Frunzaru Explanation: "acumulare" usually means "reservoir"; it doesn't usually refer to the dam itself. (Of course, occasionally these concepts can become confused. I don't think this is the case here, however.) |
