Spatial variations in crustal stresses around Iwaki City prior to the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. Numbered circles are earthquakes used in this study. The star indicates the epicenter of the 2011 Iwaki earthquake. The two earthquakes (nos. 4 and 11) located deeper than 15 km are not discussed further in this study, as we focus on shallow crustal stress
