EarthScope Today
Click this map find and access data from the thousands of EarthScope scientific instruments located through the contiguous United States and Alaska

The EarthScope scientific community is conducting multidisciplinary research across the Earth sciences utilizing the freely accessible data from geophysical instruments that measure motions of the Earth's surface, record seismic waves, and recover rock samples from depths at which earthquakes originate. In-depth collaborations between scientists and educators bring the excitement of cutting-edge Earth science research into classrooms, museums and parks.
