Karst Landscapes

Karst landscapes are characterized by distinctive landforms created by the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. Features commonly found in karst landscapes include sinkholes, caves, underground drainage systems, and disappearing streams. This type of landscape is typically formed through the process of carbonation, where slightly acidic rainwater dissolves the rock over time. Karst landscapes are known for their unique beauty and geological significance.
