Gateways: Good Starting Points
- Geology Resources on the Internet via ICE
A wide variety of links to organizations and information. ICE (Internet Connections for Engineers) was developed by Cornell University and the Council on Library Resources and includes many resource guides in the 'hard' sciences. - Galaxy Geosciences
An Internet pathfinder and list of resources: collections, directories, and organizations. - GIS Net Sites
Sites, software, newsgroups, software, and miscellaneous information. - U.S.Geological Survey: Geologic Information
Information on research activities, publications, earthquakes; and links to other WWW servers.
