ANTICLINAL et SYNCLINAL - par Mme RUAULT-DJERRAB

The aim of this video is to explain what an anticline and a syncline are, and how they can be easily identified in cross-sections and on geological maps. This video is intended for first-year undergraduate students not specializing in geology, but it can of course be suitable for other audiences (high school students, geology enthusiasts). Video Highlights: 00:10: Introduction 01:06: Identifying Folds on Geological Maps 03:51: Exercise (with a real map) Other videos on mapping:    • TD Géologie de 1ère année Licence (SNV)      • Comment reconnaître les structures géologi...      • La CARTE GEOLOGIQUE (par Mme Ruault-Djerrab)   ...
