Which geomorphological outcome results when localized subsidence occurs?

💡 Explanation

Endorheic lakes form due to localized subsidence creating closed drainage basins that trap water which does not flow to oceans; this is a manifestation of differential compaction, therefore, endorheic lakes form, rather than increased river downcutting which suggests uplift.
