Extinction of the dwarves

Extinction of the dwarves - Dinosaur fossil on rough stone formation

I was playing some of the elder scrolls games like Morrowind and Skyrim when I found out about the dwarves. I wanted to explore their ruins and kill many of their robots. Then I found out later why I couldn't find a single dwarf in morrowind or skyrim [Despite Yagrum Bagarn]. I don't know what happened to the dwarves. Does anybody know theories or evidence about the extinction?
