from the Greek word <em>isostasios<\/em>, meaning <strong>equal standing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was proposed by <strong>Clarence Dutton in 1889<\/strong> to explain the <strong>state of balance between landforms and the Earth\u2019s interior<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In simple terms, <strong>isostasy explains how landforms remain mechanically stable despite differences in height, mass, and erosion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What this really means is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Earth\u2019s crust is not rigid<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It adjusts itself vertically to maintain gravitational balance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This adjustment helps explain mountains, plateaus, uplift, and subsidence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Isostasy also helps address <strong>gravitational anomalies<\/strong> observed across the Earth\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_Isostasy_Important_for_UPSC\"><\/span>Why Is
