Fig. 11From: Stress field in northeastern Japan and its relationship with faults of recent earthquakesAnalysis of the estimated stress field using slip instability methods. The results are shown using lower hemisphere projections. In the left circle of the slip instability results, the blue plus mark and red circle denote the T and P axes, respectively. The green circle, cross, and plus mark denote the best direction for σ1, σ2, and σ3, respectively. The red, green, and blue dots denote the uncertainty of σ1, σ2, and σ3, respectively. The results using Michael’s method and the name of each area (for example “8P Oshika Peninsula”) are the same as those in Fig. 5Back to article page
