Rise of land to a higher elevation (geology) (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

upthrust

(Other definitions for upthrust that I've seen before include "Force a fluid exerts on floating body" , "it makes for buoyancy" , "Raised to higher level" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
