Links

The following links have been selected on the basis of their relevance to the interests of the IASPEI community. The emphasis is on international organisations, projects, and data centers of regional or international scope in the area of solid earth geophysics. For any suggestions, corrections, submissions, please contact the IASPEI SG.

Organizations

International

  • IPRED: International Platform for Reducing Earthquake Disasters

National

The following links are focused on national organizations such as geological surveys, government agencies and institutes dealing with solid earth geophysics, national scientific societies, important national data centers, and consortia of universities or other national entities. We will also include links to WWW pages that consolidate links in seismology or geophysics for a specific country. The completeness of this section depends almost entirely on the suggestions of the users of these pages.
