Abstract

This paper presents the results of seismic monitoring for the major seismoactive regions of Russia in 2022: Caucasus, East European Platform, Arctic, Altai and Sayan, Cis-Baikalian, and Transbaikalian regions; the Amur region and Primorye; Sakhalin Island, Kuril–Okhotsk region, Yakutia, Northeast Russia, and Chukotka, Kamchatka, and Commander Islands. For each region, the catalogs of the most significant and tangible earthquakes are given with the hypocentral parameters and magnitudes as obtained from the instrumental observations. The macroseismic effects from the majority of tangible earthquakes (with I ≥ 2.5 on the ShSI-2017 scale) that occurred in the territory of Russia have been analyzed. The materials presented in this work are of value for specialists in the fields of seismology and seismotectonics. The article also assists in early familiarization of interested readers with the available general information about the seismicity of Russia in 2022 before the release of full-scale special publications devoted to earthquakes in Russia.
