exhumation
Définition
- In geology, the term exhumation refers to the process by which a parcel of rock (that was formerly buried), approaches Earth's surface. Exhumation of buried rocks should be considered as two different categories namely, exhumation by denudation/erosion or exhumation by tectonic processes followed by erosion. Often exhumation involves a complex interaction between crustal thickening, extensional tectonics and erosion. (Adapted from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhumation_(geology))
