Abstract
The review of seismicity for Sakhalin in 2013 based on the data of four seismic stationary stations and 10 temporary digital seismic stations "DAT", working in the south of Sakhalin, is given. The main parameters of 688 earthquakes and focal mechanisms of five of them are determined. 42 earthquakes showed a macroseismic effect. The maps of the representativeness of earthquakes and of epicenters are given, the distribution of crust and deep earthquakes on the magnitude and their summarized energy for seven seismoactive districts are presented. For each area, seismic conditions are described. The seismicity of the Sakhalin region in 2013 can be characterized as moderate. Somewhat increased seismic activity was recorded in the East Sakhalin region, against the background seismicity in previous years. Somewhat increased activity was also recorded in the West Sakhalin region, where a moderately strong earthquake occurred with MLH=5.1.
