Volcanos, Earthquakes and Glaciers. Oh My!

This week we announce a long list of on-line titles from the USGS.

Many of these are also published as printed works.

In selecting these titles I chose those likely to be of use to teachers and
those with a focus on the more dynamic aspects of geology that interest
those living in California.

To locate the links search our catalog for the titles.
        http://library.exploratorium.edu/

Tips.
 - 1 If a title has commas in it leave them out of your search. The catalog
treats commas as OR searches which will give you a very large search result.

 - 2 If a title has a colon in it leave it out or you will get a search
result with "No record found".

 - 3. Notice that in the record for each of these titles under subjects is
a link to "Online resources". Click this link for a full list of what we
have catalogued in this format to date. Many of the records have yet to be
announced here.
