Fig. 6

Histogram of the azimuths of the maximum contraction of geodetic strain rate \({\tau }_{\mathrm{Hmax}}\) (left figure) and the maximum compressive stress \({S}_{\mathrm{Hmax}}\) (right figure) during 2005–2011 in Phase 1 (the same as Fig. 5). The azimuth of the horizontal axis represents a clockwise angle from the north (defined in the range of 0 to 180°)
