cave name[edit]
In a totally unscientific survey, Google returns 223,000 results for solutional cave but only 17,600 for solution cave. However, the latter term is the one used by authorities such as the National Park Service and Encyclopaedia Britannica, making me wonder whether "solution cave" is the more scientifically accepted term. This article's only currently cited source does use "solutional cave", but it seems a promotional site rather than a scientific one. Any geologists have any input? Even if "solution cave" is not the preferred term, it seems that it at least ought to be listed as a synonym along with karst cave. 2605:A601:4100:3300:2306:3E9B:EE82:C306 (talk) 21:54, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
