The results of Yakutia seismicity monitoring based on data from 24 digital seismic stations are presented. 718 earthquakes with KP=7–14 were recorded. A map of epicenters and their distribution by areas of the region are given. The most active areas were the Olekma and Aldan highlands in the south, the Laptev Sea, Chersky Range and Primorsky lowland in the north-east and the Arctic part of the region. A significant decrease (10-times less) in the amount of released seismic energy was observed in comparison with this parameter for 2013.
