No - nukes have a distinctive signature on a seismograph:
Nukes also have a distinct and easily identifiable P and S Wave pattern. It's how we know that China and the USSR popped at least one nuke off in their border wars back in the 70s.

But, you compared a nuke to an earthquake, not a nuke to TNT.

I'd never heard that. Could you go into more detail?

Are you saying that China or the USSR set off a hostile, above ground nuclear weapon in the '70s? Do you have a source?

Got any information or a link with ome more information? I'd love to see the seismograph if we had it somewhere.

Wow, now that's breaking news even if its 30 years later! I wonder if the NKs tried to test a nuke and it fizzled?

Or were we only watching their known missile fields?
