Difference between the differential stress \(\text{S}_1\)–\(\text{S}_3\) from the best-fit model scenario and the average of the modelled \(\text{S}_1\)–\(\text{S}_3\) results of all 36 model scenarios on a horizontal plane in a depth of 3500 m below sealevel (left) and on the profile A–A′ (right) with a vertical exaggeration of 1:4. In the profile, the depth of − 3500 m is indicated by a bold black line
