What effect does the process of underwater caves have on the earths surface?
I don't really know what you define as an underwater cave. Some caves have been drowned by rising sea-level, having formed on land at times of lower sea-levels (i.e. during the Ice Age glacials). Others are entirely terrestrial but full in whole or in part with water. Nevertheless, the answer is that normally caves carry water from limestone uplands to their outlet (risings or springs) at lower altitude, so their effect is to replace open streams on the surface with underground ones.Other than that or the occasional collapse of a cave roof to create a doline on the ground above, they don't affect the land surface.

How does ground water create certain features?
Groundwater can create certain features on the Earth's surface through erosion and deposition. The slow movement of groundwater can dissolve and carry away rock material, creating caves, sinkholes, and caverns. When groundwater deposits minerals as it flows through the ground, it can form features like stalactites and stalagmites in caves.
