Explore Earthquake Hazards!
http://www.iris.edu/hq/programs/education_and_outreach/animations/20

How will 3 buildings, engineered equally, on different bedrock react to
an earthquake? Explore our new animation set! Animations explore
amplification and liquefaction and include an example from the 1906 San
Francisco earthquake and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.

PROGRAM NEWS


Seismographs in Schools http://www.iris.edu/hq/sis

We are disappointed to announce that we will be unable to offer a full
educational seismometer distribution and workshop this Fall 2011. We
will not be accepting any new applications at this time. This is due to
the continued difficulty in obtaining instruments. We are committed to
this program, and we are searching for a solution that will allow us to
continue to support our existing teachers. We hope to be able to
reinstate our training program and instrument distribution soon.
