In geology, tectonostratigraphy is stratigraphy that refers either to rock sequences in which large-scale layering is caused by the stacking of thrust sheets, or nappes, in areas of thrust tectonics or to the effects of tectonics on lithostratigraphy.

Prior to the onset of orogeny the Archean-aged craton of what is today northeastern Fennoscandia rifted creating an ocean basin, the "pre-Svecofennian Ocean", that then closed during the Svecofennian orogeny.
The tectonostratigraphy of the Moldanubian Zone sensu stricto is divided into three main units: At the top the Gföhl unit, a stack of south-vergent crystalline nappes. It consists mostly of rocks of high metamorphic grade (up to amphibolite or granulite facies). These can be metamorphic sediments but also orthogneisses.
Geological position of the Western Carpathians in the Alpide belt. The Western Carpathians are separated from the Alps by the valley of the river Danube (only from the geographical point of view; the geological boundary is the so-called Carnuntum gate) and the Raaba line. [1]
