Any thoughts on what's caused this floorboard buckling? Several locations. (Not my house - yet...)

No obvious signs of things pushing up from below, so I'm thinking flooding.

Definitely water, though it could be simply expansion due to heat/cool cycles, or seepage from any side or below. Has the place been unlived in for awhile? Humidity will be different in an empty house.

Thanks. Yeah I think it has been unlived for a few months or maybe a year or so. Certainly over a winter.
