网页Synclinorium: It is the reverse of anticlinorium and may be defined as an extensive system of folds having a clearly down arched (synclinal) folding trend. Locally, however, the strata may show numerous types of small-scale folds of all types.

网页An anticlinorium is a series of anticlinal folds on a regional-scale anticline. Examples include the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous Purcell Anticlinorium in British Columbia and the Blue Ridge anticlinorium of northern Virginia and Maryland in the Appalachians, or the Nittany Valley in central Pennsylvania.

网页Anticlines and Synclines. The most basic types of folds are anticlines and synclines. Imagine a rug, the sides of which have been pushed toward each other forming ridges and valleys – the ridges are “up” folds and the valleys are “down” folds.

Geological Structure and Structural Development History
网页2020年2月15日 · Bounded by Maotan-Luocun fault (F43) (Xuechuan-Huzhou fault), the northwestern side of the area is widely developed large-scaled NE-trending short-axial anticlinorium and synclinorium. It mainly consists of the Hanggai-Fushi synclinorium, the Shiling-Shangmeilinchang anticlinorium, and other small anticlines and synclines.
Structure of Broadtop Synclinorium, Wills Mountain Anticlinorium…
网页The gross structures and the differences among the synclinorium, anticlinorium, and plateau are the results of movement on the Broadtop decollement thrust sheet at different stratigraphic positions. The thrust sheet was ramped westward to successively shallower levels as a result of compression from the east.
