Examples of foreland

foreland isn’t in the Cambridge Dictionary yet. You can help!
It is unclear how simultaneous lithospheric stretching and foreland loading can be explained by the standard elastic model.
In its southeastern part, the subsidence indicates a foreland basin which possibly applies to the entire basin.
All of the surface and subsurface structures, situated in front of the north-northwestern thrust line in the foreland area, are folded, faulted and thrusted from north to south.
At even larger (sequence/platform) scales, roughening of the sea-floor occurred through aggradation and progradation of thick carbonates, balanced by infilling of the foreland basin with orogen-derived siliciclastic sediments.
Therefore, it is unlikely that the basin formed in the foreland of a developing and rising fold-and-thrust belt, but rather formed prior to thrust-tectonics in an extensional (or transtensional) regime.
This foreland basin fill is up to 5-6 km thick.
Hypotheses suggested range from a peripheral foreland basin setting to triple junction-determined depression, but more field-based studies are needed to validate the most appropriate model.
Furthermore, volcanism coincided with prominent changes in local basin development, following collapse of the carbonate platform in this foreland basin.
Their comparison with the tectonically more active foreland basins can thus help to distinguish between global and local controls.
Caledonian deformation is also recorded in the structurally underlying foreland.
At the parasequence and sequence scales, facies patterns consist of alternating carbonates and wedges of shale derived from opposite sides of the foreland basin.
The external radiation of the frequency range passes through the heat material and deposits its energy mainly at the foreland of the ionization front.
The overall shape of the basin suggests that it formed by foreland loading.
Evaluation of structural characteristics of the study area implies that the tectonic style of the area is a foreland fold and thrust belt.
The evidence for the timing of mountain uplift as recorded in foreland basin sediments is also ignored or incompletely described for almost every region discussed.
We would argue that the sequences within the windows are not far displaced from their original positions, and can be viewed as 'parautochthonous' foreland.
As contraction progressed, new foreland-vergent thrusts first emerged in the thinner part of the models.
