surface drainage system
If the gaps caused by the water are near the surface, the ground at the surface may collapse. This causes a sickhole to form. An area of land that has lots of sinkholes is called a karst
There is not a particular kind of limestone needed to make a canyon or valley. They and caves form through erosion of most limestones, but their development is subject to a good deal of local geological and hydrological control.

I believe the answer you are looking for would be land form, or land formation.
No, this is not one of the active ingredients in the formation of Karst topography.

Karst topography is formed by chemical weathering, and affects the underlying carbonate rock (limestone or dolomite). This occurs under specific drainage conditions. Slightly acidic water (carbonic acid in solution) is the active agent.
Groundwater dissolves limestone, which causes sinkholes to form
Above limestone deposits
Caves usually form in areas with limestone or other soluble rocks that can be dissolved by water over long periods of time. Common locations for cave formation include regions with karst topography, such as in limestone landscapes or near volcanic activity, where lava tubes can create caves.

A Karst topography displays a variety of large or small scale features both on the surface and beneath. On exposed surfaces, small features may include flutes, runnels, clints and grikes, collectively called karren or lapiez. Medium-sized surface features may include sinkholes or dolines (closed basins), vertical shafts, disappearing streams, and reappearing springs. Large-scale features may include limestone pavements, poljes and blind valleys. Mature karst landscapes, where more bedrock has been removed than remains, may result in karst towers or haystack/eggbox landscapes. Beneath the surface, complex underground drainage systems (such as karst aquifers) and extensive caves and cavern systems may form.

Hurricanes are not dependent on topography. They form at sea.
The caves at Ruby Falls were formed over millions of years through a process called karst topography, where limestone is dissolved by acidic groundwater. Water slowly eroded the caverns, creating unique formations such as stalactites and stalagmites.
