    blue right-pointing arrow Institute of Seismology, University of Helsinki - The main research projects of the Institute of Seismology are concentrated on the structure of litosphere and detection seismology, but active research is done also in seismic hazard and regional seismicity. They take part into international cooperation projects in seismic sounding and verification seismology. (Added: 14-Sep-1998 Hits: 383)  [Spider URL]"
    blue right-pointing arrow Kandilli Observatory & Earthquake Research Institute - This web site is providing current earthquake statistics on the recent earthquake that struck near Instanbul. Also, The department of Earthquake Engineering started its activities in 1989 as a graduate department under the Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute of Boaziçi University. The overall mandate of the department is to conduct graduate level training, research and implementation that will contribute to seismically safer structures, systems and environment.

    blue right-pointing arrow Penn State University Natural Hazards Center - The Penn State University Natural Hazards Center was founded under the premise that natural hazards cut across social, cultural, and economic barriers to profoundly affect life on this planet. The center brings together a diverse group to develop and implement cross-disciplinary studies in hazard evaluation, forecasting, and mitigation. The site includes historical regional disaster information, as well as lists of upcoming center colloquia and university disaster courses. (Added: 5-Jan-2000 Hits: 410)  [Spider URL]"
    blue right-pointing arrow School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (Univ. of Hawaii) - The School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology, welcomes you. SOEST is a multi-disciplinary school within the University of Hawaii, consisting of a variety of institutes, departments, and other units conducting research and teaching about Earth and the other planets. The islands of Hawai'i are the home of the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology; they are an extraordinary platform from which to study the geology and geophysics, meteorology, and oceanography of the Pacific Ocean, the earth, and the other worlds of our Solar System.
