surface uplift造句

• Alternatively, when a large amount of material is eroded away from the Earth's surface uplift occurs in order to maintain isostatic equilibrium.
• Both can promote surface uplift through isostasy as hotter, less dense, mantle rocks displace cooler, denser, mantle rocks at depth in the Earth.
• Flexural uplift is not typically associated with rift flank uplift, but in the case of the Transantarctic Mountains it occurs at the same lithospheric boundary, here in conjunction with thermal expansion of the mountain belt, resulting in very rapid surface uplift . This phenomenon explains the steep slope and high elevation of the present mountains.
