A process known as karstification has to date created about 3000 circular collapses forming small basins filled with groundwater. |
The western coast is alluvial or terraced, while the eastern coast is highly indented with pronounced karstification. |
The possibility of hypogenic karstification in deeper environments has been neglected for a long time. |
Karstification can form an extensive network of grykes, underground caves and passageways. |
