Mohr circle representations of the state of stress for stress A (upper plot) and stress B (lower plot) for the extension associated with the co- and post-seismic deformations of the M7 class earthquakes. ρ is density, g is gravitational acceleration, z is depth, and ΔσA and ΔσB show the differential stress for stresses A and B, respectively
