A virtual sample set of structures that formed due to deformation
Examples in this collection include folds, faults, and strained samples and outcrops (bulk strain, cleavage, stylolites, mylonites, and shear zones).
Instructors can assign the identification and interpretation of some or all these structures as an in-class activity, a virtual laboratory experience, or an asynchronous homework assignment.
