In order to obtain the stationary tectonic strain, abrupt and large movements influenced by earthquakes are eliminated. The summary of the strain is as follows: horizontal maximum shear strain velocities in Japan are less than 3×10-7/yr. Minimum principal axes show ESE-WNW in Hokkaido, E-W in Tohoku, ES-WN in south Kanto, E-W in Chubu, ES-WN in Shikoku and E-W in Kyushu. The final result is shown in Fig. 20.
