Formation of a river anticline by river erosion and the associated isostatic rebound. As the river erodes the overlying material, the underlying rocks will rebound up, like a block in water if you remove a weight from on top of it, forming an antiformal structure. (Image created by Michael Stevens)
Anticline, in structural geology, an anticline is a fold that is convex up and has its oldest beds at its core; Anticlinal, in stereochemistry, a torsion angle between 90° to 150°, and –90° to –150°; see Alkane_stereochemistry; Anticlinal division (botany)
An anticlinorium is a large anticline in which a series of minor anticlinal folds are superimposed. Examples include the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous Purcell Anticlinorium in British Columbia [1] and the Blue Ridge anticlinorium of northern Virginia and Maryland in the Appalachians, [6] or the Nittany Valley in central Pennsylvania.

Brochure for the TaskForceMajella Project; Frontal Part Brochure for the TaskForceMajella Project; Retro Part. The scope and mission of the Project TaskForceMajella (TFM) is to construct a model of the Montagna della Majella anticline structure as an analogue of a faulted and fractured carbonate reservoir similar to those in production and explored by the sponsors of the Project, Eni and Norsk ...
Pericline also refers to a doubly plunging anticline or syncline.. Pericline is a form of albite exhibiting elongate prismatic crystals. [1]Pericline twinning is a type of crystal twinning which show fine parallel twin laminae typically found in the alkali feldspars microcline. [2]
See the main article on folds for a fuller treatment of fold types and nomenclature but in brief, an anticline is an arch-like fold whereas a syncline is its converse; a downfold. Antiforms , anticlinoria , synforms and synclinoria are variations on these.
The total calculations add to −5.15 kcal/mol (−21.6 kJ/mol), which is identical to the experimental value, which can be found in the National Institute of Standards and Technology Chemistry WebBook. [15] Diogo and Piedade used BGIT to confirm their results for the heat of formation of benzo[k]fluoranthene.
