I got it!! Very cool. My kids were so impressed with the Valentine's Day Event. Just as a side note, my superintendent was walking through the building and had to come visit.

He was amazed with the knowledge the 7th grade students had about seismology and "their" seismograph:<) Thank you over and over for letting us use the AS-1.

Many seismologists study "site response," which is the study of the way shaking from an earthquake varies from place to place due to ground and soil conditions. If you search the web for: earthquake "site response" you will find many pages on this topic, such as: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/research/groundmotion/field/duvall/ Hope this helps, John At 06:07 PM 2/7/2007, you wrote: >Is there any information about reseach done on earthquakes and relationship >with soil content in the area?

IRIS Teachers, UCAR in Boulder, Colorado, is looking for teachers to help in developing earthquake-related teaching resources. If you could travel to Boulder for two weekends, this sounds like a great opportunity to utilize the knowledge and expertise you've gained through participation in the IRIS Seismographs in Schools program.
