New Insights into the Relative Timing and Contribution of the Chicxulub Impact and Deccan Volcanism in the Cretaceous-Paleogene Boundary Extinctions
Abstract
Using sulfur content and sulfur stable isotope measurements at two well-preserved KPg sections, we propose an environmental scenario for the KPg boundary that places the onset of the main Deccan eruptive phase after the Chicxulub impact.
