Did Late Cretaceous cooling trigger the Campanian–Maastrichtian Boundary Event?

Abstract:

The Campanian – Maastrichtian (83–66 Ma) was a period of global climate cooling, featuring significant negative carbon-isotope (δ13C) anomalies, such as the Late Campanian Event (LCE) and the Campanian – Maastrichtian Boundary Event (CMBE). A variety of factors, including changes in temperature, oceanic circulation and gateway opening, have been invoked to explain these δ13C perturbations, but no precise mechanism has yet been well constrained. In order to improve our understanding of these e...
