Question 5 • WCA 4130 Earth and Space Science 1st Quarter 26-27
Karst develops when slightly acidic water can circulate through and dissolve soluble rocks, such as limestone. Good groundwater circulation and moderate to heavy rainfall provide water that promotes dissolution. Soft, soluble rocks near the surface are more easily dissolved; hard rock and poor circulation hinder karst development, and a dry climate supplies too little water.
