TL;DR: In this article, the authors used regional patterns of present-day tectonic stress to evaluate the forces acting on the lithosphere and to investigate intraplate seismicity, and found that most intraplate regions are characterized by a compressional stress regime; extension is limited almost entirely to thermally uplifted regions.

Stress Map of North America
Mary Lou Zoback,Mark D. Zoback,John H. Adams,S. Bell,Max Suter,Gerardo Suárez,Klaus H. Jacob,C. Estabrook,M. Magee +8 more
TL;DR: The stress map of North America as discussed by the authors, constructed on four 42 inch by 55 inch sheets, plots modern maximum horizontal stress orientations for North America inferred from a variety of geophysical and geologic data.
