Jura folds do not resemble models of continuously distributed buckling; they are never sinusoidal. Rather, they may be approximated by discrete, externally rotated conjugate kink bands with rounded hinges. Observational details are confusing, and good outcrops are limited; however, several types of geometrical adjustments necessary during growth (particularly external rotation) of a variety of elementary kink models may be plausibly correlated with observed features. The suitable way to the modeling of fold growth and an explanation of observations on different scales seems to be through synthesis of different modes of rotation and adjustment mixed in varying degrees to fit individual folds. A dominant role is played by incompetent beds of variable importance giving rise to several types of disharmonic folding.
