Global whole lithosphere isostasy : implications for surface elevations, structure, strength, and densities of the continental lithosphere
The observed variations in the thickness of the conductive lithosphere, derived from surface wave studies, have a first‐order control on the elevation of the continents, in addition to variations in the thickness of the crust—this defines whole lithosphere isostasy (WLI). Negative buoyancy of the ma...
