Shoushan National Nature Park is primarily composed of limestone landscape. Mass wasting rather than limestone solution forms the geomorphological features here, such as limestone caves, fissures, and valleys. Specifically, the void of caves, fissures, and valleys are relict spaces formed by slippage of limestone or stacking of fallen rock blocks, rather than limestone-dissolving processes. Since caves in the Shoushan area are not solutional caves, it would be erroneous to describe the geomorphological landscapes here as karst landscapes. We provide results from field investigation of Shoushan National Nature Park to support our argument and propose a limestone caves development model, which demonstrates the cause of the limestone caves and the potential hazards that cavers confront.
