Isn’t the seismic trace of an underground nuke detonation clearly distinguishable from that of an earthquake?

Isn’t the seismic trace of an underground nuke detonation clearly distinguishable from that of an earthquake? Yes, it is. This is dubious, without confirmation.

It certainly should be. One very sharp detonation with no pre-event rumblings. A very specific initial pressure gradient. No long duration aftershocks. One very centralized epicenter as opposed to wide “plate shifting” areas.

yes, the nuke is an instant spike and an earthquake builds. I wouldn’t get worked up over this. Everyone and their brother in the mid-east would know if it really happened.

Isn’t the seismic trace of an underground nuke detonation clearly distinguishable from that of an earthquake? I'm certainly no expert, but the answer to that has almost got to be yes.

Ping to post # 9 regarding seismic trace of an underground nuke.
How would you estimate the size of a nuke that triggered 5.0 on the Richter scale and took place Saturday night, October 25 just before midnight Iran time, with its epicenter at 26.70°N, 55.02°E, just north of the strategic straits of Hormuz, opposite Abu Dhabi.
