Figure F37. Stress polygons and likely stress regimes based on breakout widths and estimated uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) values at two depths in Hole C0002A. A. Forearc basin. B. Prism. SHmax and Shmin lie within the stress polygon, to the right (or below) the red line and along a trajectory of rock strength, parallel to the blue lines. LSF = LWD depth below seafloor. TF = thrust faulting, SS = strike-slip faulting, NF = normal faulting.
