Distribution of the principal strain rate axes (black bars: compression, white bars: extension), the high strain rate zone called the Niigata-Kobe Tectonic Zone (gray zone) (Sagiya et al., 2000), the trajectories of the maximum horizontal compressional stress (Ando, 1979) (gray dashed lines), Quaternary active faults (lines), and recent large earthquakes in and around the high strain rate zone (circles).
