In situ stress determination algorithm Counts UCS (MPa) For S h = 26 MPa  S H = 0.05 MPa Integration of all misfits S H = 28.5 MPa BB For S h = 26 MPa  S H = 0.05 MPa Cumulated density in height (m) Cumulated probability Assume Gaussian distribution of UCS(P) and  i = 0.6 (Song et al., 2010) Using the M-C failure criterion with probability, calculate the probability function of breakout width for given far-field stresses (S hmax and S hmin ) Compare the probability with breakout density in height Select the far-field stress with the minimum misfit

13. Conclusions Using the distributions of rock strength and breakout width instead of their averages, we were able to determine both S hmin and S Hmax simultaneously. In normal faulting stress regime, S hmin is insensitive to error and becomes more sensitive as it goes to the strike-slip faulting stress regime. In Kumano forearc basin in situ stress is very close to the limit equilibrium condition for normal faulting. Underneath the unconformity the stress condition becomes stable and goes to the strike-slip fault stress regime with increasing depth.
