Abstract

The seismic observations in the “Central Asia” (Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and southern Kazakhstan) territory were conducted by networks of three states: Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, consisting of 25, 36 и 40 stations respectively. The catalog for 2014 includes 256 events with КР=8.613.7. The strongest event in the catalog with КР=13.7, called Kadjisay earthquake,occurred on November 14 at 01h24m on the southern coast of Issyk-Kul lake near Kaji-Say village (Kyrgyzstan). In the region as a whole, the seismic process is characterized by lower values of the number of earthquakes Nand seismic energy E released per the year com-pared with the average annual values of these parameters for the period from 1996 to 2013. The location and configuration of the main seismically active zones remainedunchanged.
