- Summary:
- The Cretaceous was a period characterised by very warm climate, oceanic anoxic and oxic events and enhanced volcanic activity. The end of the Cretaceous is punctuated by a well-documented asteroid impact and the extinction of, among other groups, the dinosaurs. This volume elucidates various aspects of Cretaceous marine and continental environmental conditions. The articles present a range of interdisciplinary contributions grouped into sections on marine environments (including anoxic and oxic events, volcanism and the Cretaceous-Palaeocene boundary); mixed marine-freshwater environments and continental records.
