When God was done with the flood, it says the waters assuaged (or abated).
Psalm 104 has more to say about it.
Ps 104:6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood
above the mountains. 7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder
they hasted away
. 8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys
unto the place which thou hast founded for them.
This phrase, "go up by the mountains, down by the valleys" means to rise up and
sink down, into the place where God had founded for them.
Eldridge Moores, a prominent geologist, says that the sea floor sank when the
planet was covered by water at some point. He was not trying to prove the
Bible, he was just stating what he had found by studying the earth.
