U.S. Geological Survey, 2015, Tweet Earthquake Dispatch (TED): U.S. Geological Survey, https://doi.org/10.5066/F7R49P1Z.
Summary
The USGS is offering earthquake alerts via two twitter accounts: @USGSted and @USGSBigQuakes. On average, @USGSted and @USGSBigQuakes will produce about one tweet per day, however, aftershocks following major earthquakes can greatly increase this number. Users interested in custom alerts based on specific geographic regions and magnitude thresholds should sign up for e-mail alerts distributed by our Earthquake Notification Service (ENS).
