Tectonic map (modified from Figure 1 of Hiramatsu et al. (2010). Distribution of the principal strain rate axes (black bars: compression, white bars: extension), the high strain rate zone called the Niigata-Kobe Tectonic Zone (gray zone) (Sagiya et al. 2000), the trajectories of the maximum horizontal compressional stress (Ando 1979) (gray dashed lines), Quaternary active faults (lines). A dotted rectangle shows the analyzed region of this study shown in Figure 2.
