Liigestepiirkonna
Liigestepiirkonna refers to a geographical or administrative region characterized by its specific geological formation or the presence of distinct jointed structures within the earth's crust. The term, derived from Estonian, literally translates to "jointed region" or "region of joints." These joints are typically fractures or fissures in rock masses that have not experienced significant displacement parallel to the fracture surface.
Such regions are often studied in geology and engineering due to their implications for groundwater flow, seismic
The formation of liigestepiirkonna is usually a result of tectonic forces, such as compression, tension, or
