Crustal Stresses in the East Arctic Region From New Data on Earthquake Focal Mechanisms

A. I. Filippova,
V. I. Melnikova

Abstract: East Arctic is a key region for understanding the current geodynamic pattern and lithospheric evolution of the whole Arctic. To close an evident gap in regional seismic data, we calculate source parameters for 103 earthquakes (Mw ≥ 4.2, 1990–2021) and compile a representative uniform dataset including source depths, scalar seismic moments, moment magnitudes, and focal mechanisms. On its basis, crustal stresses are estimated within four blocks with the homogeneous stress field. Extension dominates along the Gak… Show more
