Which is missing in most areas that do that do not have karst topography?
Limestone
Why does karst topography only in some geographic locations?
most regions do not have limestone under the soil Most regions have rock layers other than limestone
Why is Karst geology important environmentally?
Karst geologic structures (limestone and sandstone layers) make the surface overlying them, too unstable for most human applications (tall buildings, urban development, major highways, bridges, etc.). Husbanding of grazing animals (horses, cows, sheep, etc) is compatible with this landscape. Sink holes, underground and disappearing streams, limestone, sandstone, and caves with their inevitable sink holes are typical of the Karst topographies.
What type of rock is found in the burren?
As the Burren is a karst-landscape made up of exposed limestone bedrock, most of the rock found in the area is limestone.
What are the major landforms and regions of the Republic of Guinea?
Karst topography is a landscape shaped by the dissolution of a layer or layers of soluble bedrock, usually carbonate rock such as limestone or dolomite.[1]Due to subterranean drainage, there may be very limited surface water, even to the absence of all rivers and lakes. Many karst regions display distinctive surface features, with sinkholes or dolines being the most common. However, distinctive karst surface features may be completely absent where the soluble rock is mantled, such as by glacial debris, or confined by a superimposed non-soluble rock strata. Some karst regions include thousands of caves, even though evidence of caves that are big enough for human exploration is not a required characteristic of karst.
Which is missing in most areas that do that do not have karst topography?
Limestone
Where are most caves found?
Most caves are found in areas with limestone bedrock, as it is easily dissolved by water, creating caves through a process called karst topography. These areas include regions like Kentucky in the United States, parts of China, and the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico.
Are there any caves in Orlando?
Not in Orlando proper, but since all of Central Florida and most of the state are karst topography, there are lots of caves in outlying areas, and tons around Gainesville and northern Central Florida.

Does Hungary have caves?
Yes, even world-wide famous ones! Check related links: Caves of Aggtelek Karst and Slovak Karst. Similar caves found in Buda Mountains, around the capital city Budapest, but most of them there are not open for the public.
