      1. Water Storage: Dams are used to store water for a variety of purposes such as irrigation and drinking supplies. This is one of the most important uses of dams.

      2. Hydropower: Dams are used to generate electricity through turbine generators. This is a renewable source of energy and is often used in remote areas.

      3. Flood Control: Dams help to control flooding by storing large amounts of water during periods of heavy rainfall.

      4. Navigation: Large dams can increase the navigability of rivers, allowing boats and ships to travel upstream, downstream or both.

      5. Recreation: Many dams, including Hoover Dam in the United States, are popular tourist destinations. These structures also provide opportunities for recreation, such as fishing, swimming, and boating.
