Question

Write a short note on Disharmonic fold.

Answer 1

disharmonic fold. disharmonic fold Afold which exhibits sharp changes in its geometric properties (i.e. wavelength, symmetry, and shape) when compared with other folds in adjacent layers. It is due to the inter-layering of competent and incompetent beds (see COMPETENCE) which buckle on different wavelengths

Answer 2

Disharmonic fold A fold which exhibits sharp changes in its geometric properties (i.e. wavelength, symmetry, and shape) when compared with other folds in adjacent layers. It is due to the inter-layering of competent and incompetent beds
