Comparison between the azimuths of the maximum contraction of geodetic strain rate \({\tau }_{\mathrm{Hmax}}\) (blue arrows) and the maximum compressive stress \({S}_{\mathrm{Hmax}}\) (orange arrows) for central to southwest Japan. The green circles represent the grid points where the azimuths differ by more than 60° as those in Fig. 8. (3)–(5) show areas of characteristic results
