Abstract
Recent estimates of the magnitude and orientation of lithospheric stresses are reviewed. Data come from a variety of sources including earthquake focal mechanisms, fault slip data, young volcanic dikes and feeders, in‐situ stress measurements at depth, lithospheric flexure models, microstructure paleopiezometry, and consideration of constraints on maximum stress differences from laboratory‐determined friction and flow laws.
