Definitions:

Asthenosphere

The area of mantle beneath the lithosphere that is solid, but hotter than the rock above it and can flow under pressure; functions as a soft, weak zone over which the lithosphere may move.

Crustal Blocks

These are large areas of the Earth's crust that have moved together or apart due to tectonic activity.

Isostatic Adjustment

The equilibrium adjustment of the Earth's crust due to changes in load (such as the melting of glaciers), affecting the crust's vertical movement.

Significant Erosion

The process whereby soil, rock, and other surface material are removed from one location and transported elsewhere, typically by wind, water, or ice, in a manner that noticeably alters the landscape.
