| It has been previously reported that because of extension of the outer arc of such anticlines, graben form above their crests. |
|
| In south and east Dorset this resulted in the formation of two enormous structures, known as the Weymouth and Purbeck anticlines or upfolds. |
|
| The displacement of the thrust sheet produces two anticlines and a syncline. |
|
| A series of transverse anticlines and synclines are observed that have axes orientated NE-SW, approximately perpendicular to the fault zone. |
|
| Following the intrusion of basic dykes in the late Palacocene, the whole of the post-Zechstein succession was gently folded into a series of major synclines and anticlines. |
|
| In this case the folds found within the Miocene sediments have been interpreted as extensional folding in the form of the ramp anticlines and drag folds. |
|
| Its topography, represented by the alleged anticlines and synclines of Rosenkrantz, is instead an expression of the original sea-floor topography. |
|
| Bozkurt mainly provides a short, but incomplete, summary of previous work on field characteristics of extensional folds, including rollover anticlines. |
|
| A series of synclines and anticlines developed within the basin at several localities but most prominently south of the Aghios Georgios fault zone. |
|
| In the process, domes, cavities, faults and anticlines were created. |
|
| Large-scale geological structures including anticlines, synclines, thrusts and faults formed during the Caledonian Orogeny typically trend in a SW-NE direction. |
|
| It is possible that faulting along the crests of deep-seated anticlines provide the conduit for mobile muds to migrate through to the seafloor surface. |
|
| If this is true, then the succession had been folded into two long-wave length anticlines and intervening synclines with an amplitude of 35-40 m and several smaller folds. |
|
| If the tops of the rock units within the folds remain pointing upwards, they are called anticlines and synclines, respectively. |
|
| As is the case with all anticlines, older rock strata are found in the core of the structure. |
|
| In the folded system anticlines erode into the highest and longest massifs of the Apennines. |
|
| It is the relative ages of the rock strata that distinguish anticlines from antiforms. |
|
| They usually flank the sides of anticlines and display opposite characteristics. |
|
| Breached anticlines can become incised by stream erosion, forming an anticlinal valley. |
|
| Water, minerals and specific rock strata such as limestone found inside anticlines are also extracted and commercialized. |
|
|
|
| Lastly, ancient fossils are often found in anticlines and are used for paleontological research or harvested into products to be sold. |
|
| In southwest of this zone, there are many parallel anticlines and synclines. |
|
| The coincidence between the branches of the Warrensburg Sandstone and the valley anticlines implies some relationship between the two. |
|
| Our reconnaissance strongly suggests numerous anticlines and indications exist to support ideal source, reservoir rock and thermal gradients. |
|
| During the Santonian age, around 84 million years ago, the basin underwent intense compression and folding, forming over 100 anticlines and synclines. |
|
| All the future wells are located on the crests of rollover anticlines. |
|
| The progressing age of the rock strata towards the core and uplifted center, are the trademark indications for evidence of anticlines on a geologic map. |
|
| The strata are relatively flat lying, but have been folded in to a series of broad-open east-west orientated anticlines and synclines then block faulted. |
|
| Anticlines can have a major effect on the local geomorphology and economy of the regions in which they occur. |
|
| Anticlines are usually developed above thrust faults, so any small compression and motion within the inner crust can have large effects on the upper rock stratum. |
|
| Anticlines can be recognized and differentiated from antiforms by a sequence of rock layers that become progressively older toward the center of the fold. |
