Popis: Various characteristics of seismic process on the territory of Bishkek geodynamic proving ground are considered. Seismicity analysis is performed on the basis of earthquake catalogue, according to KNET network data. The catalog includes more than 10,000 seismic events that occurred from 1994 to 2019. To describe the energy distribution function of earthquakes, the Gutenberg - Richter law was used, as well as the position of nonequilibrium thermodynamics with the use of Tsallis statistics, which generalizes classical thermodynamics to the case of nonextensive systems. It is shown that the flow of earthquakes on the territory of the Bishkek geodynamic proving ground is a system with memory and long-range spatial correlations, and the study region itself is characterized as seismically active. The following seismic process characteristics are distributed in space and in time: KSR seismogenic fracture parameter, seismotectonic deformation intensity, seismic activity, Tsallis parameter q and constants a, as well as a parameter characterizing the slope of the repeatability graph (b-value).
