A map of volcanoes erupting, earthquakes, and sulfur dioxide release in April 1988.

From the Smithsonian Institution, this is an interactive timeline *and* map of global volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and emissions since 1960. Four dimensions of geoscience! Even better, you can download the data used to generate the map for yourself.

Fair warning, though, this really got the fan spinning on my laptop.
