Which is heterogeneous, stress or strength? An estimation from high-density seismic observations

Abstract Using data from high-density seismic observation networks installed in the western Nagano Prefecture region in Japan, we precisely determined focal mechanisms and estimated the high-resolution stress field at a scale of 1 km. Almost all differences between observed and calculated slip direc...
