dynamic metamorphism

Regional metamorphism, or dynamic metamorphism, occurs in great masses of rock.

Dynamic metamorphism is associated with zones of high to moderate strain such as fault zones.

Regional metamorphism, also known as dynamic metamorphism, is the name given to changes in great masses of rock over a wide area.

Results from dynamic metamorphism.

Within depths less than 5 km, dynamic metamorphism is not often produced because the confining pressure is too low to produce frictional heat.

Three types of metamorphism exist: Dynamic metamorphism, Contact metamorphism and Regional metamorphism.
