Coarse sediments from the continual uplift and erosion were later deposited in foreland areas as molasse.

en.wikipedia.org

The molasse can sometimes completely fill a foreland basin, creating a nearly flat depositional surface, that nonetheless remains a structural syncline.

en.wikipedia.org

The thin-skinned style of deformation is typical of many fold and thrust belts developed in the foreland of a collisional zone or back arc of a continental volcanic arc.

en.wikipedia.org

Thus, the thrust belt is mobile and the foreland basin system becomes deformed over time.

en.wikipedia.org

When the orogen evolves the foreland basin becomes shallower and molasse is deposited on top of the flysch.

en.wikipedia.org

When the convergent movement of the two plates results in continental collision, the basin becomes shallower and develops into a foreland basin.
