UPDATE: 12Mar11 6:26 pm: I haven't made it clear through this simple list that there are many organizations helping those affected by the earthquake and tsunamis in Japan. Some are mentioned at the beginnings or ends of posts by Evelyn at Georneys, The Geochristian, Matthew at Hydro-Logic, Jessica at Magma Cum Laude, and Erik at Eruptions. Please consider giving what you can.
UPDATE: 14Mar11 8:01 pm: The Sendai or Tohoku earthquake has now been officially updated to a Magnitude 9.0 by the U.S. Geological Survey: Magnitude 9.0 - NEAR THE EAST COAST OF HONSHU, JAPAN (links to the main USGS page about the earthquake).
UPDATE: 19Mar11 5:20 am: Because of work and other time considerations, earthquake and tsunami links here go through March 16th, the first six days. For continuing news and other geology see Chris Rowan's AllGeo Feed, Ron Schott's GeoPicks, and GeoBulletin: News from the Geoblogosphere.
Please note that most recent posts are at the bottom.

Incredible post thanks for putting this together. Its all so overwhelming.
A
still many many earthquakes!
http://www.jma.go.jp/en/quake/quake_singendo_index.html
please help us!
@Anonymous 2, I've added a short list of the geoblogs linking to contribution sites at the beginning of this post, to help point more of my readers to donations that will help Japan. And I've passed your request on via Twitter.
What part of Japan are you from? I wish you and your friends and family well, and am sorry I can't help more directly!
Wow Silver, can you put things together! :)
Hey, Harold, it's mostly the AllGeo feed, Ron Schott's feed, and a few others I follow. I'll link to the feeds later - though they are on my sidebar under Geoblogosphere.
Like your new blog look! :)
Damn, that is a lot of posts. And to think I felt I was on top of things.
So much going on...
As noted in updates to the blog post above, geoblogs are continuing to post about the earthquake and tsunami. Links to feeds to read all geoblogosphere news are give in the last update near the top of the post.
Thanks for visiting. :)
