Input

Entity: Airy isostasy model in geophysics
Triple: [George Biddell Airy, notableWork, Airy isostasy model in geophysics]

Generated description

The Airy isostasy model in geophysics is a theory proposing that variations in topographic height are supported by corresponding differences in crustal thickness, with higher regions underlain by deeper, less dense “roots” floating in gravitational balance on the denser mantle.
