Land Subsidence

Land Subsidence is a geological phenomenon characterized by the gradual or abrupt downward displacement of the Earth's surface due to the compaction or withdrawal of subsurface materials, typically induced by natural processes or anthropogenic activities such as groundwater extraction, mining, or petroleum production.
