The Role of Isostasy in the Evolution and Architecture of Fold and Thrust Belts
AbstractWarmer conditions prevalent in the hinterland of orogenic systems facilitate local ductile flow underneath the surface load, making Airy-like local isostasy more prevalent in these domains. In contrast, flexural isostasy better describes the regional response to surface loadi...
