search_earthquakes
ActiveTool of Emsc
declared in 0.1.0
Search seismic events from EMSC (European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre) via the FDSN-standard seismicportal.eu API. Global coverage with especially strong Europe/Mediterranean reporting — complements USGS. Filter by UTC time range, magnitude, and location (either a bounding box OR a center point + radius in degrees). Times are UTC ISO 8601, depth in km, and place names come from the Flynn-Engdahl region. Example: search_earthquakes({ start: "2026-01-01", end: "2026-02-01", minmag: 5.0, orderby: "magnitude" }) or search_earthquakes({ lat: 38.0, lon: 23.7, maxradius: 5, minmag: 3 }).
