There are a lot of Earth Science applications that deal with waves. Seismic waves from earthquakes are a major one that is particularly pertinent after the recent Haitian earthquake. There are quite a number of lesson plans dealing with seismic waves at Larry Braile’s website. Most of the lessons are as practical demonstrations pdf’s and some use downloadable software (Windows only unfortunately), but there are some online applications as well.
In terms of online resources, the IRIS network, produces nice maps of recent earthquake locations. It also has a good page with “Teachable Moments” regarding recent earthquakes. These include the above video of why the Haitian earthquake did not produce a tsunami.
Although it’s not directly related to waves, I particularly like the thermal convection experiment on Braile’s website. It provides, with a baking dish, a sterno can, some water and some thyme, a great example of the convection in the Earth’s mantle that drive plate tectonics.
