Answer:

Caves, caverns, sinkholes, funnel-shaped holes, underground rivers and lakes

Explanation:

The karst topography is found at places that are dominated by rocks made out of calcium carbonate, better known as limestone. These rocks react with the water very easily and get dissolved from it very easily. Because of the large scale dissolving, this type of topography has numerous specific features. Some of the most common features in the karst topography are the caves, sinkholes, caverns, funnel-shaped holes, underground rivers, underground lakes etc. All of them are very attractive and understandably cause a lot of interest, thus they are often tourist destinations, but more importantly of big scientific interest. The biggest problem with this topography is that it is generally not stable, and it is very common that the rocks can crumble, which makes them relatively dangerous if visited at certain periods of the year, especially when there is more precipitation.

This is mainly due to climate changes, the precipitation has been decreasing, the temperatures have been rising, so the desert has slowly crippled into the territories that were once steppes and savannas. There is an organized action from the people that leave on the borderline of the desert, where they have been thought some techniques as to how to stop the desert growing, and they have gladly accepted it and work hard on it. Initially it seems that there are positive results, but for sure only the time will tell.
