138 T152. The Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) Boundary Interval: From Large-Scale Geological Events to Mass Extinction Mechanisms


Session Chairs:
Pim Kaskes, James Witts, Courtney Sprain

The Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary interval witnessed extreme geological events: the Chicxulub impact and Deccan Traps volcanism, and a biological catastrophe. New proxy-records, coupled with numerical modelling, unravel the mechanisms driving the environmental change and mass extinction.
