Substratina
Substratina is a term used in the field of geology to describe a layer of rock or sediment that lies beneath another layer, typically a stratum. The term is derived from the Latin words "sub," meaning "under," and "stratum," meaning "layer." Substratina can be found in various geological settings, including sedimentary basins, volcanic regions, and areas affected by tectonic activity. It plays a crucial role in understanding the geological history of an area, as it can provide insights into past environments, climate, and tectonic events. The study of substratina is essential for various applications, such as oil and gas exploration, mineral resource assessment, and environmental impact assessments. Techniques such as seismic reflection, drilling, and geological mapping are commonly used to investigate substratina and its characteristics.
