It is called Erosin
Caves are typically formed through a process known as erosion, where water and chemicals gradually break down the rock, creating hollow spaces underground. Over time, the combination of erosion and tectonic activity can lead to the creation of cave systems. These formations can vary greatly in size and complexity, and often contain unique geological features such as stalactites and stalagmites.
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.
There are several types of caves, including limestone caves (formed by the dissolving of limestone), lava tubes (formed from solidified lava flows), sea caves (formed by erosion from ocean waves), glacier caves (formed by melting ice within glaciers), and karst caves (formed in soluble rocks such as gypsum or dolomite). Each type of cave has unique characteristics based on its formation process.
Yes, there are various types of caves, including limestone caves, lava tubes, sea caves, ice caves, and solution caves. Each type of cave is formed through different geological processes and conditions, resulting in unique characteristics and features.
Caves and sinkholes are both formed by erosion processes, usually involving the dissolving of bedrock like limestone. Sinkholes are sudden collapses at the surface caused by the erosion of underground rock layers, while caves are hollow spaces formed within the rock itself. In some cases, caves can collapse and form sinkholes.
The main types of caves are solution caves, lava caves, sea caves, glacier caves, and talus caves. Solution caves form from the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone; lava caves are created by flowing lava; sea caves are carved by the action of waves on coastal cliffs; glacier caves form within glaciers due to melting and refreezing processes; and talus caves are formed by fallen rocks creating cave-like structures.
Erosional caves are formed by the action of water or wind.
No. Most caves are formed out of limestone making that false.
The Maquoketa caves in Iowa were formed through years of natural non-glacial erosion.
Wookies live in trees, not caves.

They - or it? - are normal karst caves, formed in limestone by its dissolution by water. I believe they still carry a stream: if so they are still forming.
Other way round! Water and/or air are in caves.:-) Most of the world's caves have formed / are forming in limestone.
Karst caves, and it is the majority of caves; formed by acidic ground-water dissolving the limestone.
