Introduction

Main Body
Isostasy maintain height-density equilibrium in differing major landforms.
Role in shaping major landforms:
(II) formation of dam and water reservoir charging network
(III) anthropogenic activities altering
Challenges to isostasy and equilibrium:
(II) formation of dam and water reservoir charging network
(iii) anthropogenic activities altering the natural shape of landforms.
(i) global warming and glacial melting in antentic mayland to large scale shift in isostasy equilibrium
(v) earthquake vulnerability shifting fold and joints in earth.
Conclusion: Isostasy is the nature balance of earth to provide stability of different landforms and its understanding is necessary to data understand the geology behind formation of landforms.
