Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Isostasy" is a seminal scientific work that explores the fundamental principles of gravitational equilibrium within the Earth's crust. Written by William Bowie, a pioneering figure in geodesy, this volume provides an in-depth analysis of how the lithosphere maintains balance atop the more fluid mantle. The text details the observations and mathematical models used to explain why mountain ranges and ocean basins exist in their current states, offering a comprehensive look at the relationship between surface topography and the underlying distribution of mass.The work examines the impact of density variations on gravity measurements and discusses the implications for understanding tectonic movements and the structural integrity of the planet. Through rigorous scientific inquiry, "Isostasy" explains the Pratt and Airy hypotheses and their roles in the development of modern geophysical theory. This book serves as a foundational resource for students and professionals in the earth sciences, capturing a pivotal moment in the evolution of our understanding of the physical forces that shape the world. It remains a classic reference for those interested in the mechanics of the Earth's interior and the study of global geodynamics.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
