Dobras (geológicas)


Explanation:
As dobras formam-se geralmente em zonas mais profundas da litosfera, onde a temperatura é mais elevada, potenciando a deformação dúctil das rochas. A disciplina que estuda a deformação causada pela a interacção das placas tectónicas é a Geologia Estrutural.
As dobras são de extrema importância para a geologia porque permite estudar a história da Tectónica de Placas, isto é permite obter informações acerca de placas antigas que já não existem actualmente e das suas interacções.
