Principles of Physical Geography
(ii) Orogenetic Movements The word has been derived from Greek word oros,
meaning mountain and genesis meaning origin, thus the movements are related
to the orogeny or the mountain building process. These forces work horizontally ...

Professional Paper - United States Geological Survey
He distinguishes two main types of tectonic features, the old rigid table-lands —
so rigid that they are not overcome by later mountain-building processes — and
orogenetic zones, in which mountain chains have been formed. The orogenetic ...

A Source Book in Geology, 1900-1950
As Rutten concluded, "Instead of world-wide, synchronic, orogenetic revolutions,
there thus have been periods of long duration, characterized by varying and
fluctuating tectonic activity. The active periods are not world-wide. While part of
the ...

Movements The epeirogenetic word consists of two words viz. 'epiros' (meaning
thereby continent) and 'genesis' (meaning thereby origin). Epeirogenetic ...

Cyclic Development of Sedimentary Basins
Such observations mainly concerned Phanerozoic orogenes, but the question
was already raised early whether Precambrian orogenetic phases would be
characterized by similar features. Or would the pulses known from Phanerozoic ...
J.M. Mabesoone, V.H. Neumann, 2005
The fundamental outlines of the Italian orography are essentially the result of
crustal deformations induced by orogenetic forces that gave origin primarily to the
two mountain structures which constitute the present skeleton of the Italian ...
