From: Pliocene to Quaternary deformation in the Var Basin (Nice, SE France) and its interpretation in terms of “slow-active” faulting

Fig. 8

Stereograms showing a results of inversion of fault-striation data measured in the Donaréo Fault using the Angelier (1990) method, b results of ‘Diedres droits’ inversion computed from all the fault-striation data shown in Fig. 8. Results provided by punctual stress inversion of Angelier and results at the scale of the study area by ‘Diedres droits’ inversion are similar, characterized by N–S compression. Spread of T axis probability on the E–W direction of ‘Diedres droits’ inversion results suggests possible permutations between σ2 and σ3, as also indicated by the stress inversion results (see text for details)
