| 1. | Another hypothesis suggests that isostasy related to glaciations may have occurred.
|
| 2. | Processes of isostasy involve the uplift of continental crusts along with their shorelines.
|
| 3. | Horizontal shortening caused flexual isostasy to bend the lithosphere.
|
| 4. | Isostasy does not upset equilibrium but instead restores it ( a negative feedback ).
|
| 5. | Neither moon has a shape close to hydrostatic equilibrium; the deviations are maintained by isostasy.
|
| 6. | Originally an island, it is now part of the main Gotland island due to the isostasy.
|
| 7. | The general term'isostasy'was coined in the year 1889 by the American geologist Clarence Dutton.
|
| 8. | His scientific researches had to do with the theory of isostasy and its applications to dynamic and structural geology.
|
| 9. | Of course, given plate tectonics and isostasy, there is no system in which all geographic features are fixed.
|
| 10. | The Hayford derived a global ellipsoid in ~ 1910, based on intercontinental isostasy and an accuracy of 200 m.
