Figure F26. Orientation of SHmax. Note consistency of trend across accretionary prism at Sites C0006, C0004, and C0001 and contrasting orientation in forearc basin at Site C0002. Orientations at Site C0002 represent change in SHmax from shallow depths in forearc basin (red lines) to near base of hole in underlying accretionary prism (blue line). Convergence vector represents range from Miyasaki and Heki (2001), Heki (2007), and Seno et al. (1993). GPS = Global Positioning System.
