Below is a list of virtually every link I ever use. If there are any new data sources, links, resources, publications, software downloads, or anything else pertaining to earthquakes and volcanoes and the monitoring thereof, please email me and I will see if I can add it to the list. Some links will have a description below them. Please let me know if any links are incorrect or not working.
https://www.unavco.org/data/web-services/documentation/documentation.html#!/gps/getPositionByStationId
-The UNAVCO web service "data download" site to download GPS data. It is much like the IRIS dataselect URL builder. Do not forget to go to the "How to" drop down menu and click "...Read/Create GPS Deformation Charts".
https://www.unavco.org/instrumentation/networks/status/all/realtime
-Map of GPS stations you can download data from.
https://www.unavco.org/instrumentation/geophysical/gps-gnss/gps-gnss.html
-About how they record deformation with GPS instruments.
https://service.iris.edu/irisws/timeseries/docs/1/builder/
-IRIS DMC time series URL builder. This assists in the retrieval of seismic data into many formats including SAC and miniseed. Need help? Please email me or goto the "How to..." section on my website here and click "...download seismic data".
http://service.iris.edu/fdsnws/dataselect/docs/1/builder/
-This is the IRIS DMC Dataselect URL builder. It is similar to the Time Series tool but if you ever have problems with Time Series, I suggest to use Dataselect. Again, I will show you how to use this tool in the "...download seismic data" page.
http://isthisthingon.org/Yellowstone/daythumbs.php
-Please click the link above to visit the website. This is a great tool showing almost all the seismograms for Yellowstone caldera. You can also manipulate the time and data at the top of the page to see past seismograms. The online seismograms are good, yes, but they contain 48 lines and 30 minutes per line constrained by pixels and image size. To truly understand the cause of an event, you might want to download seismic data and review it using either SWARM or WAVES.
https://earthquake.usgs.gov/
https://pnsn.org/
-This website is the main site for the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network. Can view seismograms and can also view spectrograms if you goto the data/products dropdown menu.
http://mbmgquake-eidsserver.mtech.edu/welcome.html
-The Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology (MTech MBMG) seismic website. Detail is better than the U of U graphs, but seismic data analysis using SWARM or WAVES (or any other seismic analysis tool) will always be better.
http://quake.utah.edu/earthquake-center/heli-map
https://earthquake.usgs.gov/monitoring/operations/heliplot.php?virtual_network=ANSS
-These long period online plots are best used to witness global earthquakes (teleseisms).
http://www.unavco.org/
-Please visit data and products. The UNAVCO spectrograms are often used by some to claim daily magma intrusions. If you use the UNAVCO data, or any other data for that matter, you must ALWAYS cross correlate it with other spectrograms and seismograms. If magma intrusion occurs, all data sources will point to it. Magma is the most powerful force beneath our feet.

https://tremor.pnsn.org/REALTIME/
-Hourly Pacific Northwest tremor map. Mainly used for detecting slow slip events and other tremor events. Remember tremor is different than an earthquake.
http://earth.nullschool.net/
-This tool is amazing and has a lot of cool features. I mainly use it to detect sulfur dioxide, SO2, emissions from the ground. SO2 is often released by either burning oil or volcanoes (active and inactive). Please click "earth" in the bottom left, then click the mode "chem", then click SO2sm.

-A study about 60 Deep Long Period events beneath Cascade Range volcanoes from 1980-2009. However I wish they would give us an updated research paper with recent events cited! They are probably still happening.
https://pnsn.org/blog/2012/01/06/repeating-earthquakes-on-mount-rainier-are-glaciers-the-culprit
-This is a very interesting article on common seismicity shown on seismic station RCS on the slope of Mt. Rainier. Example image shows two ice earthquakes, a distant earthquake, an earthquake beneath Mt. Rainier, a volcanic DLP, an avalanche, and a rockfall. Example image shows seismogram (waveform) ananlysis along with the frequency (spectral) analysis.
http://geodesy.unr.edu/NGLStationPages/gpsnetmap/GPSNetMap.html
-Want to see all-time GPS deformation plots for every GPS station in the world? Then visit this link! Please play around with it. It is an absolutely amazing tool. It can help you find the locations of stations, if you are downloading your own data, and it can double as an all-time plot viewer!
https://www.unavco.org/data/web-services/documentation/documentation.html#!/gps/getPositionByStationId
-This is the tool I use to download my own raw GPS data. Want to learn how to do it? Well, you can do it yourself by personal experience and trial and error, or you can goto the "How To" menu above and goto the GPS page.
https://www.livescience.com/63349-long-valley-supervolcano-magma-cache.html
-Long Valley Caldera, in eastern California, currently houses 240 cubic miles of magma. That is enough magma to support a full-blown supereruption. The same cannot be said for Yellowstone in Wyoming, though Yellowstone still houses a great deal of magma. Personally, I think Long Valley is more concerning since it houses more magma than Yellowstone and that magma seems to reside at a more shallow depth than at Yellowstone. Regardless, both are volcanic threats and should be monitored closely.
I am always taking suggestions for more links and resources. Got something to add? Please contact me at any time!
