Karst Landscapes Hide Caves, Springs, and Sinks
喀斯特地貌隐藏洞穴、泉眼与落水洞
-
Karst forms when rainwater slowly dissolves limestone bedrock.喀斯特地貌由雨水缓慢溶解石灰岩基岩形成。
-
Underground rivers carve caves and leave behind tall stone pillars.地下河侵蚀出洞穴，并留下高耸的石柱。
-
Sinkholes appear where surface rock collapses into empty spaces below.地表岩石塌陷至下方空洞处，形成天坑。
-
Springs flow where underground water meets the land surface naturally.地下水自然涌出地表之处即为泉。
-
Many karst areas have few surface rivers but rich groundwater supplies.许多喀斯特地区地表河流稀少，但地下水丰富。
-
Farmers in karst zones must watch for sudden ground collapse risks.喀斯特地区农民须警惕突发性地面塌陷风险。
-
Bats and rare cave insects live only in dark, humid karst environments.蝙蝠和稀有洞穴昆虫仅栖息于阴暗潮湿的喀斯特环境中。
-
Limestone cliffs above caves show layers of ancient sea life fossils.洞穴上方的石灰岩悬崖上可见古代海洋生物化石层。
