The anomalous sea-floor topography and geoid height over the Australian-Antarctic Discordance (AAD) are examined and attributed to dynamic mantle flow in this study. Because the subsidences of sea-floor depth and geoid with age exhibit forms of isostatic response of cooling from the surface, they ar...
