Welcome to the BSL Outreach Page!

We invite you to enter these pages and learn about our "earthquake territory," the San Francisco Bay Area in California, U.S.A. We have produced and collected a series of presentations, videos, and activities, which we hope will educate you, whether you are a student, a teacher, or even only an interested citizen, on what it means to live in a tectonically active environment, and on how a large-magnitude earthquake will affect you. Click the links below or use the menus above to get started!

For Teachers Our teaching section provides a large array of seismology resources, which include PowerPoint presentations, videos, and activities.
