In this study we test whether principal components of the strain rate andstress tensors align within Switzerland. We find that 1) Helvetic Nappes line(HNL) is the relevant tectonic boundary to define different domains of crustalstress/surface strain rates orientations and 2) orientations of T- axes (ofmoment tensor solutions) and long-term asthenosphere cumulative finite strain(from SKS shear wave splitting) are consistent at the scale of the Alpine arcin Switzerland. At a more local scale, we find that seismic activity andsurface deformation are in agreement but in three regions (Basel, Swiss Juraand Ticino); possibly because of the low levels of deformation and/orseismicity. In the Basel area, deep seismicity exists while surface deformationis absent. In the Ticino and the Swiss Jura, where seismic activity is close toabsent, surface deformation is detected at a level of ~2 10E-8/yr (~6.310E-16/s).
