Isostasy is a state of balance or equilibrium between the lithospheric plate and the underlying mantle, the asthenosphere. Due to the weight of the lithosphere, part of it sinks into the plastic asthenosphere and settles to an equilibrium position. This is what causes changes and differences in elevation on the earth.
