Big Trouble in Earthquake Country,site is ideal for 9-12 grade students interested in learning more about earthquakes, how they happen, when they happen, etc. The site is hosted by the Lawrence Hall of Science at University of California, Berkeley and developed by Kevin Cuff, an instructor and curriculum developer at the Astronomy-Geology-Physics education department at the Lawrence Hall of Science. Students can learn about the likelihood and hazards of quakes, create strategies to minimize loss of life and damage to local infrastructure.

Southern California Earthquake Center (SCEC):Los Angeles and Southern California earthquake preparedness information. This document is based on the "Putting Down Roots in Earthquake Country" handbook released to Southern Californians in October of 1995. It is divided into a number of sections to help you find the information you want. This document is a resource to turn to with your questions. If you only want to know how to make yourself safer, go straight to the "Taking Control" link.
Earthquake Engineering Research Institute is a national, nonprofit, technical society of engineers, earth scientists, architects, planners, public officials, and social scientists. EERI members include researchers, practicing professionals, educators, government officials, and building code regulators.
Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) is a consortium of United States Universities that have research programs in seismology. The purpose of IRIS is to develop and operate the infrastructure needed for the acquisition and distribution of high quality seismic data.
