A Boulder, or Talus, Cave is simply an enterable void or set of voids between boulders and the rock-face from which they have fallen.
Collapses within existing karst, sea or lava caves may choke the passage or chamber with boulders, and such chambers are often called "boulder chambers", but that does not form the cave, and it is not the same as a true boulder cave.

How is a boulder cave formed?
A Boulder, or Talus Cave rather stretches the definition of "cave", but it's simply a void or set of voids left between fallen boulders and their source rock-face. A cave's chamber that is heavily obstructed or even terminated by collapsed rock is often called a "boulder chamber", but it's not correct to say that collapses form caves. They don't - they modify them.
What are the two features that are formed by underground weathering?
The two features formed by underground weathering are caves and caverns. Caves are natural underground chambers typically formed in limestone, while caverns are larger caves that often have unique formations such as stalactites and stalagmites.

What are the scientists who study caves called?
Scientists who study caves are called speleologists
What besides acid rain can create a cave?
Caves can also be created by underground water erosion, where water dissolves and carries away rock to form caves in limestone and other soluble bedrock. Additionally, caves can be formed through volcanic activity, such as lava caves formed from flowing lava, or glacier caves created by melting ice in glaciers.
Can caves be formed in areas of slate?
No. Most caves are formed out of limestone making that false.

How lime- stones caves formed?
Limestone caves are formed through a process called chemical weathering. Rainwater, which is slightly acidic, dissolves the limestone rock over time, creating small cracks. These cracks then widen as more water flows through, eventually forming caves. Additionally, some limestone caves are formed through the erosion of underground rivers.
