Isostatic rebound occurs when a load is imposed on or removed from the lithosphere. The surface tends to rise or sink as the lithosphere rises or sinks in the asthenosphere. Loads may consist of large lakes, oceans (on continental shelves during eustatic sea level rise), ice, sediment, thrust sheets, and volcanoes.

Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment.

den301095 [7]

Answer:

<u>Life expectancy index, Education index, Literacy index, Income index all the countries are ranked based on these parameters</u>.

Explanation:

As HDI is a statistical composite index and the formula for calculating the Human Development Index is (life expectancy x education index x income index).

The higher the score the higher is the value of the development of the country. Developed by Dr. Mahbub Al Haq and Amartya sen.

The HDI shows low human development scores from 0.0 to 0.5. The medium human development scores between 0.5 and 0.8. High human development for HDI scores ranges from 0.8 and 1.0.

Though there are limiting factors of HDI as it does not take into account the qualitative factors and cultural identity into considerations, As others have suggested the HDI should be more human-centered ranging from gender to environmental biodiversity.
