nuvel1

NNR-NUVEL-1 global model of current plate motions by DeMets et al. 1990

datasets

Models the direction of the maximum horizontal stress using
relative plate motion parameters. Statistical algorithms to evaluate
the modeling results compared with the observed data. Provides plots
to visualize the results. Methods described in Stephan et al. (2023)
