Movement - Movement

Japanese: 曲動 - きょくどう
Movement - Movement
A movement that causes the earth's surface to curve or bend. When the earth's surface curves upward, it is called an upturn, and when it curves downward, it is called a downturn. Although it is not as obvious as the folding of strata, it gives the earth's surface a slight incline, which can lead to changes in drainage systems and the formation of basins.
