   In structural geology, an anticline is a fold that is convex up and has its oldest beds at its core. The term is not to be confused with antiform, which is a purely descriptive term for any fold that is convex up.

   A geological formation described usually as a dome or inverted saucer. Such a structure would be an anticline with 'four way dip closure'. However, not all anticlines are this 'perfect' shape. If covered by an impermeable layer of rock the anticline would make a potential oil or gas reservoir.

Where relative ages of the rock layers, or stratigraphic ages, are not known, convex upward folded rocks are referred to as antiforms. The fold of an anticline may be undula...
