rift1 Geology a long narrow zone of faulting resulting from tensional stress in the earth's crust
rift2 US1. a shallow or rocky part in a stream 2. the backwash from a wave that has just broken Rift a major linear tectonic structure of the earth’s crust hundreds and thousands of kilometers long that forms when the crust is horizontally extended; this process usually occurs where there is a vast arching uplift. It is believed that the entire thickness or a significant part of the thickness of the earth’s crust is being extended. A rift consists mainly of a series of fractures, among which faults with inclined surfaces predominate; the crustal sector lying above the surface of a fault is also dislocated downward. The sum of the horizontal components of all such shifts compensates for the horizontal extension of the crust. The dip of a fault is usually 60°-70°, and the vertical amplitude of the shift along a fault may reach 5 km. The crustal extension can be several kilometers, and in some cases, several tens of kilometers long. Various types of grabens and horsts are found within a rift. The graben is the chief structural form. A rift usually begins to form, however, with a gentle upward bend of the crust in the form of a tectonic arch; the arch later breaks up and separates into grabens and horsts. Very large rifts are called rift zones or systems. V. V. BELOUSOV rift[rift] (geology) A narrow opening in a rock caused by cracking or splitting. A high, narrow passage in a cave. riftThe direction in which stone splits most readily; characteristic of granite or other stone not having visible stratification or foliation.RIFT
