My God. The stupid on this thread is truly breathtaking.
Move lots of water from continental to oceanic crust, and you get isostatic re-equilibration. Obviously.A shift of 0.08" per year sounds entirely plausible, given that Scotland is still rising 1 mm per year as a rebound after the ice cap was removed 12000 years ago.
I'm just not sure whether it's good or bad...
Quoting: Wurzel Say isostatic whateverthefuck in words we can understand. If you can't explain it as you would to a very intelligent ten year old, you don't understand it.
