Inclined downward from opposite directions, so as to meet in a common point or line. 2. <geology> Formed by strata dipping toward a common line or plane; as, a synclinal trough or valley; a synclinal fold; opposed to anticlinal. A downward flexure in the case of folded rocks makes a synclinal axis, and the alternating upward flexure an anticlinal axis. Origin: Gr. To incline together; with + to incline. <geology> A synclinal fold. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
