0 an area of land formed of rock such as limestone that is worn away by water to make caves and other formations:
The primary forest on this karst land is an evergreen broadleaved forest mixed with a few deciduous species.
These roads run in very direct- almost straight-line -routes in a very rugged and broken karst terrain.
Elsewhere, omnipresent agricultural terraces and karst topography would have limited movement and communication.
In the upland areas, highly dissected limestone surfaces with characteristic karst scenery contrasts with older, morerounded granite and gneiss landscapes.
In this study, seasonal variation in the seed banks of karst forests and of their degraded vegetation were examined.
It is also known for its karst sinkholes in the north-eastern section of the park.
These areas are characterized by a karst topography that is typified by numerous sinkholes, caverns, and underground streams.
Karst is characterized by dissolved limestone formations such as sinkholes and haystack-shaped hills known as mogotes.
