Still, the principal impact comes from the work needed to construct the dam and from the initial impoundment of water. Once that has taken place, reservoirs provide different [[environmental]] benefits. For example, reservoirs support aquatic plants and animals. Surrounding lands can support migratory birds which feed on fish. Proposed dams generally change streams both upstream and downstream from where they are constructed, and the lands inundated by the reservoir are no longer available for land plants and animals, as does the development of large expanses of land for cities and crops. Society must weigh the benefits provided by dams against these tradeoffs.
