Volcano links

Take advantage of some of these sites to augment class and textbook treatments of volcanoes. The following links are examples of some of the resources available on the WWWeb. Keep in mind that these represent only a sampling of the sites out there.
Volcanoes in the Northwest
Mt. St. Helens and other Northwest Volcanoes
Cascades Volcano Observatory
Long Valley Caldera
Hawaii
Smithsonian Institute Global Volcanism Project - and many links to volcano pages worldwide
Mauna Loa
Hawaiian Scientific Drilling Project
Michigan Tech Univ. - probably the most useful of all the sites
A map of the world showing notable volcanoes; includes links to individual volcano WWebsites
Volcano World is designed for a slightly younger audience, but has a bunch of cool features, including "Ask A Volcanologist"
And, finally, this site has a table showing some of the different
Types of Volcanoes.

Other Volcano WWWebsites include:
You may learn (on-line!) how to monitor active volcanoes
courtesy of the USGS in a short treatment of techniques and equipment - OR - you may want to access information on active volcanoes worldwide using this site from VolcanoWorld. Another page that has useful links concerning volcano research centers on the WWWeb, volcano observatories, and volcanic hazards may be found at this site run by Tom Kelly.
Another site is:
Volcanoes - Can we predict volcanic eruptions? This site takes a while (30-45 sec) to load. However, be patient, since it has many useful features!
A volcanic tremor bibliography This site also includes a new database on volcanic tremor parameters (more than 700 references!!), available in a number of different formats.
A more extensive list of links may be found on the WWWebsite for
EES 390 - Volcanoes at Whittier College. The Global Volcanic Earthquake Swarm Database This is another huge (more than 600 entries) database of earthquake swarms at 150 volcanoes around the world from 1979-1989. It includes basic information on volcanoes, specific eruptions, and swarm parameters.
Two other resources that may be used if you are writing a paper on volcanoes include:
a short textbook by Robert Tillingand a "Learning Web" site on volcanoes run by the U.S. Geological Survey
