Summary of in-situ stress measurements from Becker (2000), stress inversion from Rabin et al. (2018), paleostress fault-slip data (post 2.9 Ma) from Ustaszewski and Schmid (2006), stress data from the 2003 release of the World Stress Map project (Reinecker et al., 2003), data from Nagra drill sites Hermrigen and Ruppoldsried (Heidbach & Reinecker, 2013), and P-axes derived in this study. Please refer to the legend for symbols explanations. Note that σHmax-orientations regarding recent near-surface deformation (in situ measurements, red butterfly symbols) tend to scatter between NNW and NNE, paralleling the shortening directions determined from the fault-slip data (white arrows). σHmax-orientations obtained from seismic activity within the Paleozoic crystalline basement (black arrows), however, are predominantly and more systematically NW–SE-oriented
