How can subsidence lead to the formation of sedimentary rocks?
When the ground subsides it can become lower than the surrounding terrain, forming a basin. Since water, which carries sediment, flows downhill, sediment will collects in these basins. If enough sediment collects, compaction and cementation will turn it into sedimentary rock.
