1. This world map depicts the siq big earthquakes since 2150 B.C. to 2008, with the recent EQs in China depicted in yellow stars and the devasting one in a red star. One can see the teutonic fault lines and how the earthquakes concentrate along those lines of converging plates. I also queried for those eq's since 2000 that have been a magnitude of 7 or higher and then set bounds on those EQs of 100 miles.
2. The GIS data are I am interested in having my students investigate would be those concerning the fault line along the California coast and the major earthquakes of magnitude 7 or greater in 1811 & 1812 in the Missiouri, Kentuckey, Tennessee area and the 2007/2008 data with the earthquake situated between Indiana and Illinois and their relationship to the world map of EQ data along the world fault lines.
3. The GIS analysis techniques I am considering using with students would be using the queries, boundaries, color coding, shape tools, zoom in/out, data gathering or whatever else the Science teachers would find helpful in manipulating the EQ data for the 8th grade curriculum.
