单词	tectonics
释义	tectonics /tɛkˈtɒnɪks / plural noun [treated as singular or plural] Geology Large-scale processes affecting the structure of the earth’s crust: there remains an area of active tectonics north of the mountain chain Nicol had come to different conclusions about the tectonics of the area... These data clearly demonstrate that parts of the Scottish basement underwent major thick-skinned tectonics during the Grenvillian orogeny. As the two examples confirm, the largest failures and most rapid rock-slope development rates are associated with steep, mountain environments and with active tectonics. The significant time gap between orogenic deformation and thermal metamorphism implies that metamorphism in many other orogens may not necessarily be due to compressive tectonics.
