I believe the word is 'transgression'.

It means: the action of going beyond or overstepping some boundary or limit

In terms of law: the violation of a law or a duty or moral principle

In terms of geology: event during which sea level rises relative to the land and the shoreline moves toward higher ground, resulting in flooding.Transgressions can be caused either by the land sinking or the ocean basins filling with water (or decreasing in capacity).
