Synclines are downward arches of folded rocks.
Anticlines and Synclines typically form during crustal deformation as the result of compression that accompanies orogenic mountain building.
A syncline is formed by compressional stress.

Anticlines and Synclines typically form during crustal deformation as the result of compression that accompanies orogenic mountain building.
The most common of these are anticlines and synclines; anticlines are the "crests", while synclines are the "troughs".
