Abstract

This chapter will present the results of inversion of modern state of stress, obtained by the method of cataclastic analysis of discontinuous displacements (MCA), for three seismically active regions of Asia: the Northern Tien Shan, the Altai-Sayan region and the Kuril-Kamchatka region. The stress data on the earthquake focal mechanisms are taken from global and regional seismic catalogues. The Northern Tien Shan and the Altai-Sayan region are the intracontinental orogens. The Kuril Islands and Kamchatka are active continental margins. The similarities and differences in the state of stress between these two geodynamic types of deformation of the lithosphere are shown in this chapter.
