End-Cretaceous extinction in Antarctica linked to both Deccan volcanism and meteorite impact via climate change
The cause of the end-Cretaceous mass extinction is still debated due to difficulties separating the influences of two closely-timed potential causal events (massive volcanism and meteorite impact). Here, the authors link the extinction to both kill mechanisms through a new paleotemperature record.
