| axial plane |
An imaginary plane which intersects the crest or trough in such a manner that the limbs or sides of the fold are more or less symmetrically arranged with reference to it. Anticline: Fold with limbs dipping away from the fold axis. Syncline: Fold with limbs dipping towards the fold axis. Symmetrical Fold: A fold in which both limbs dip equally away from the axial plane.
