Exempel på hur man kan använda DEXTRAL i en mening

• In the North Island the displacement is mainly taken up along the Hikurangi Subduction Zone, although the remaining dextral strike-slip component of the relative plate motion is accommodated by the North Island Fault System (NIFS).
• Sinistral and dextral, in some scientific fields, are the two types of chirality ("handedness") or relative direction.
• The shell of this species, like all planorbids is left coiling (sinistral), but is carried upside down and thus appears to be right coiling (dextral).
• Many of the species are sinistral or left-handed chirality in their spiral shell coiling, whereas most gastropod shells are dextral, with a right handed spiral.
• Major dextral transcurrent displacements along the Northern Rocky Mountain Trench and related lineaments in north-central British Columbia.
• Sinistral and dextral, the two types of chirality ("handedness") or relative direction in some scientific fields.
• As the snail grows, its shell extends either clockwise (dextral) or counter-clockwise (sinistral), coiling and creating whirls as the snail ages.
• There are two forms of the shanka: a more common form that is "right-turning" or dextral in pattern, and a very rarely encountered form of reverse coiling or "left-turning" or sinistral.
• The winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus), also known as the black back, is a right-eyed ("dextral") flatfish of the family Pleuronectidae.
• Examples of active pull-apart basins include the Dead Sea, formed at a left-stepping offset of the sinistral sense Dead Sea Transform system, and the Sea of Marmara, formed at a right-stepping offset on the dextral sense North Anatolian Fault system.
• In the case of a dextral fault zone, a right-stepping offset is known as an extensional stepover as movement on the two segments leads to extensional deformation in the zone of offset, while a left-stepping offset is known as a compressional stepover.
• The tectonics of Turkey are made up of three main elements: the Aegean-Cyprus Arc, a convergent plate boundary where the African Plate lithosphere subducts under the Anatolian Plate; the dextral strike-slip North Anatolian Fault, where the fault block moves horizontally rightwards against the block across the fault; and the sinistral strike-slip East Anatolian Fault, where the fault block moves horizontally leftwards against the block across the fault.
• Although they carry their shell in a way that makes it appear to be dextral, the shell of coiled planorbids is in fact sinistral in coiling, but is carried upside down, which makes it appear to be dextral.
• The dextral or sinistral shell is imperforate and pyramidal-conic; solid and glossy with an obtuse apex.
• The dextral or sinistral shell is conically-elongate, solid, plano-convex and margined above with the suture well impressed.
• The shells of this species appear to be dextral in coiling, but as is the case in all planorbids, the shell is actually sinistral.
• The shells of species in this genus appear to be dextral in coiling, but as is the case in all planorbids, the shell is actually sinistral.
• The 1790±5 Ma-old Late Palaeoproterozoic Piedra Alta mafic dike swarm was subsequently affected by the -wide Mesoproterozoic SYSZ and its eastern end bends along the dextral megashear zone.
• The dextral Fidget Fault commences to the south of the Waiau Toa / Clarence River and runs along its valley initially before striking east to the south of the hill of Mackintosh Knob and intercepting the Jordan Thrust near the coast where the Jordan Thrust transitions to the Kekerengu Fault.
• Known faults within the area of the earthquake epicenters are the SSW-NNE trending San Isidro, El Ángel, Río Ambi and Otavalo Faults, all considered to be dextral strike-slip faults, sometimes with reverse movement.
