If a 100-year flood has recently occurred along a river, it is now less likely to experience a similar event in the near term.

The statement is correct.

When a flood is giving a time-bonding term, such as the 100-year flood, in this statement, it means that it has been noticed that the floods from the particular river occur on approximately that much of a time span.

If there has been a flood recently, than it most probably means that there isn't going to be a flooding caused by that river for the foreseeable future.

Now, there's always exceptions, as the climate patters are changing constantly, and there's always surprises, but in general, in lot of regions of the world, there has been noticed a certain consistency in some natural occurrences.

Explain factors that account
quester [9]

In the past century, the world has recorded a rapid increase and decrease in population in different geographical areas. This has been influenced by different factors such as urbanization and family planning.

Urbanization creates better employment opportunities and wages. It also provides better social amenities such as schools and hospitals. These encourage people to move from rural areas to urban areas in search of a better living. The migration results in a decrease of population is the rural areas and a rapid increase in population in the urban cities.

Increased access to contraceptives has enabled women to limit family sizes. Women are able to plan for the number of children they intend to have. This has generally decreased the population growth in developed regions.
