Fig. 2: Comparison of terrestrial carbon isotope records with Central Deccan eruption model, La2010b orbital solution and marine record.

From: Terrestrial records of two hyperthermal events in the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary suggest different control mechanisms

a Central Deccan eruption models based on the chronology of Schoene et al.43 and Sprain et al.44; b Hg/Al2O3 ratio of bulk samples from the Nanxiong Basin4; c δ13C record of carbonates in the Nanxiong Basin; d La2010b orbital solution (blue) filtered by long eccentricity (405-kyr), illustrated in red51; e δ13C record of bulk samples from ODP 12621,52. The shadings represent hyperthermal events, LMWE Late Maastrichtian Warming Event, Dan-C2 Dan-C2 event, L.C29n Lower C29n event.
