DIPdip| In earth science, angle at which a structural surface, such as a fault or a bedding plane, is inclined from horizontal. Measured at right angles to the strike of that surface, it is used together with strike to describe the orientation of geological features in the field. Rocks that are dipping have usually been affected by folding. |
