Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.
The two common natural occurrences in the Andes that cause mountains to rise and the coast to sink are tectonic plate subduction and volcanic activity. Subduction occurs when one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, leading to the uplift of the Andes mountains. Meanwhile, volcanic activity contributes to the formation of new land and can also lead to the sinking of the coastal areas.
