Equilibrium compensation depth and inversion analyses for elastic slab model of the lithosphere in the central Asian region

In this article,we relate the theory with the methods of the equilibrium co mpensation depth of the lithosphere and compound compensation of elastic sl ab. Then we get the best lithospheric equilibrium compensation depth of 75 km in the Central Asian Region and the basic parameters of the lithospheric elastic slab in this region by linear inversion. We conclude that the asth enolayer with the low cohesion in the depth of 75 km in the upper mantle of low cohesion coefficient may be the approximate position of the large-scal e lithosphere equilibrium in this region. Moreover, we discuss the mechanis m of the elastic slab of the Central Asian Region lithosphere.
