Crustal Roots and Isostasy
In regions of prolonged continental collision (orogeny), the presence of dense eclogite layers in the lower continental crust contributes significantly to gravitational instability. This high-density layer acts as a mechanical anchor, influencing the long-term relaxation and thickening profile of the continental root. Seismic velocity studies consistently identify …
