what are the positive and negative affect of a sinkhole
How do you measure sinkholes
The Grand Canyon averages 10 miles in width. Its narrowest point is in Marble Canyon, where it is 600 feet wide. Its maximum width of 18 miles is found at several different points.

Sinkholes are formed when the supporting water table runs dry and the ground no longer has this strata to stand on. This happens in the states of Florida and Georgia in the US because they have more underground rivers than most. The ground simply collapses down the now dry rivers that were once filled with water. These are the first real signs of a major drought.

often sinkholes becomes plugged by sediments and later gets filled with water forming sinkhole lakes
A sinkhole is like a gap in the ground that suddenly appears, similar to a pothole on a road but on a larger scale. Just as a sinkhole can unexpectedly form and create a hazard, a pothole can also pose a danger to drivers if not properly maintained.

When the rock above a cave collapses, it can form a sinkhole if the collapse creates a depression in the ground. This can sometimes lead to the formation of a sinkhole cave system underground.
There is no abstract noun form for the concrete noun'sinkhole', a word for a physical cavity in the ground.The noun 'sinkhole' is sometimes used in an abstract context in relation to approaching a danger or ill advised situation (You can't afford to invest in a sinkhole like that.)
Most sinkholes form when mildly acidic water dissolves limestone underground, this forms a limestone cave. A sinkhole occurs when the cave collapses.
Yes it is an incised river canyon.
the sinkhole got bigger
A sinkhole can be compared to a pothole on a road, as both are depressions or holes that form on the surface. Sinkholes can also be compared to caves, as both are voids formed underground that have the potential to collapse.
