| Summary: | Abstract The present study presents the results of the stress tensor inversion in the Sakhalin-Island and adjacent territories. The method of cataclastic analysis of discontinuous displacements has been used to perform the stress reconstruction. The stress inversion has been performed on the basis of local focal mechanism solution catalog of earthquakes, NEID and Global CMT Project data. The calculations are carried out at three depths levels (0–6 km, 6–12 km and 12–18 km) for magnitude range (Mw) 3.0–7.0. The results of the stress reconstruction allowed us to obtain the new specific features of the tectonic stress field: orientation of the principal stress axes, stress ratio or Lode-Nadai coefficient and the types of stress (the geodynamic regimes). The tectonic stress field is less stable at depth between 6 and 12 km. |
