isostatic

The forces disturbed the isostatic balance of the earth's crust.

It was formed where isostatic change resulted in a raised beach.

They form as an isostatic response to an orogenic load.

A variant used for 3D shapes is called hot isostatic pressing.

In both cases, later hot isostatic pressing at approximately 950 C further improves the properties.

However, some degradation of c3 basins occurred by isostatic adjustment.

This can cause tectonic or isostatic uplift in the region.

Due to isostatic uplift, the area referred to is now inland.

Eustasy is another cause of relative sea level change quite different from isostatic causes.

This may well be the isostatic limit discussed previously.

Pressure is applied to the material from all directions (hence the term "isostatic").

After the retreat of the final ice sheet, there was considerable isostatic rebound.

Gravitational measurements were showing that many areas are not in isostatic equilibrium.

Thus understanding glacial isostatic adjustment is important in monitoring recent global warming.

However, the timescales for isostatic rebound are very long.

Some of these isostatic movements triggered large earthquakes in Scandinavia about 9,000 years ago.

Additionally, a recent study in France tested the material under isostatic pressure and found it to be stable up to at least 350 tons/cm2.

Isostatic forces allow mantle material to rise under the thinning lithosphere.

The weight of the ice has caused the underlying rock to sink by between 0.5 and 1 kilometres in a process known as isostatic depression.

E-materials are prepared by impact grinding and then hot isostatic pressing into a block.

Rejuvenation may result from causes which are dynamic, eustatic or isostatic in nature.

Glacial isostatic adjustment also plays an important role in understanding recent global warming and climate change.

That rearranged the pressures everywhere and the isostatic balance is readjusting.

In practice, for a given area to remain in isostatic equilibrium, there would always be a limiting factor.

Its main features have been the rise in sea level and the isostatic recovery from the weight of the ice sheets in the north.
