Thread: Updates - 2010 Chile EQ, useful volcano site

Here is some information that I hope you will find useful:

1. I just completed a new educational resource on the Feb. 27, 2010
Chile earthquake
(http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~braile/edumod/chile/chile.htm). Discussion
includes historical earthquakes, a seismic gap before the Feb. 27 event,
the 2010 EQ sequence including aftershocks, frequency-magnitude,
earthquake damage including the unusual and interesting collapse of the
Alto Rio building in Concepcion. As part of the materials, there are
instructions and down-loadable file for use with the Seismic/Eruption
software.

2. I have updated (more complete, concise and organized) the list of
geoscience education materials
(http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~braile/indexlinks/educ.htm) on my web site.

3. I came across and web page (http://www.mrietze.com/) with excellent
volcano and volcano eruption photographs and videos clips that you can
download. The site was mentioned in a recent USA Today article on
photographing volcanic eruptions. Some of the video clips are really
great including several on the recent Iceland volcano eruptions.

Hope these are useful to you!
