盐穹在过去干湿两季交替出现时期开始形成。

Salt domes start during past periods of alternating wet and dry climate.

当许多盐穹挤压年轻的上覆岩层时，有可能原本在下方的盐质会逐渐挤压直至突出地表。

While many salt domes retain a cap of the youngest rock layers at the surface, in some cases the underlying salt extrudes all the way to the surface.

例如，盐穹表现为负的重力异常，因为比起所有的固结沉积物，岩盐具有较低的密度。

For instance, salt domes appear as negative anomalies because rock salt is of a lower density than all consolidated sediments.
