Overturned Synclinal and Anticlinal Bend Folds: Characteristics, Symbology and Possible Implications for Structural Interpretations part of 2018 Structure and Tectonics Forum:Abstracts
This abstract page from the 2018 Structure and Tectonics Forum presents a geological study introducing "overturned synclinal and anticlinal bend folds"—a newly recognized fold class characterized by one upright and one overturned limb with opposing dips but consistent stratal facing—proposing updated symbology and interpreting their significance in multi-phase deformation regimes, particularly in California's Inyo Mountains and Transverse Ranges.
