CODE refers to the name of each sub-dataset; reference gives the corresponding publication with the complete description of the data and stress inversion methodologies; N-data is the number of paleostress tensors included in the statistical handling; specific localization provides the limits of the boxes used for the subdividing of the datasets of the Tauern Window, the Valais, Aosta, Vanoise and Briançonnais areas; average dominant σ3 is the σaverage σ3 direction for each dataset, regarding both the contouring and best-axis computing and the rose diagram distribution, given in the (0°–180°) range; secondary σ3 is the direction of the secondary extensional signal (orogen-perpendicular, still active), given in the (0°–180°) range only where it is significant enough
*significant occurrence of orogen perpendicular secondary extension (see discussion in Sue et al. 2007)
