Pattern and origin of the present-day tectonic stress in the Australian sedimentary basins

The present-day stress field of Australia has been the subject of great interest in the three past decades because it shows a variable pattern for the orientation of maximum horizontal stress (SHmax) that is not parallel to absolute plate motion. The last prior release of the Australian Stress Map (...
