Reflection of these periods in the regional catalogue in values representative magnitudes and an inclination of the schedule of repeatability of registered earthquakes is marked. For the period of a century of observation the level of representative magnitudes has changed from M=5 up to M=2 in a greater part of the territory of Northern Caucasus. The location and equipment of stations are described, special attention is given to the history of the oldest stations "Pyatigorsk", "Sochi", "Anapa".
