A circular depression caused by underground erosion is typically called a sinkhole. Sinkholes can form gradually over time as underground voids or caves collapse, often leading to sudden and unexpected ground subsidence.
A bowl-shaped depression at the head of a glacial valley is called a cirque or a corrie. It is typically formed by the erosion of a glacier.
dissolution sinkhole.
While a funnel-shaped depression of limestone eroded by rainwater is called a limestone pavement or a doline, a cave is a naturally occurring underground void typically formed through chemical weathering and erosion processes such as the dissolution of limestone by acidic groundwater.
A deep and steep bowl-like depression produced by glacier erosion is called a cirque. The word "cirque" is a French word for "arena". A cirque is also known as a corrie.
The type of sinkhole that shows a circular depression over longer periods of time is called a "cover-collapse sinkhole." This type of sinkhole forms gradually as the ground surface slowly subsides into the underlying void, resulting in a depression that may continue to grow over time.
a circular depression in the ground caused by a meteoroids is called a crater
The circular depression that forms when the roof of a cavern collapses is called a "sinkhole." Sinkholes occur due to the erosion of soluble rocks, such as limestone, by water, leading to the eventual collapse of the ground above. They can vary in size and can pose risks to nearby structures and ecosystems.
It is called a crater
Crators? If that's what you mean by circular depression.
Caldera.
A circular depression that forms when a magma chamber empties is called a caldera. It is a large volcanic crater made from the collapse of a volcano's mouth.
No, a funnel-shaped depression in limestone caused by dissolution from rainwater is typically called a "sinkhole," not a cave. Sinkholes form when the surface layer collapses into an underground void, while caves are larger, underground chambers formed through the continuous erosion of limestone by acidic water over time. Both are features of karst topography but refer to different geological formations.
