Subsidence is the motion of a surface (usually, the Earth`s surface) as it shifts downward relative to a datum such as sea-level. The opposite of subsidence is uplift, which results in an increase in elevation. Ground subsidence is of concern to geologists, geotechnical engineers and surveyors. ==Dissolution of limestone== Subsidence frequently c....

[atmosphere] Subsidence in the Earth`s atmosphere is most commonly caused by low temperatures: as air cools, it becomes denser and moves towards the ground, just as warm air becomes less dense and moves upwards.
