65,5 Mil BC (± 0.049 Ma) (Extinction, Volcanism, Tsunami, Climate & Atmosphere) – At the K/P boundary Antarctica had a subtropical climate and flora, complete with a marsupial fauna. Work at Seymour Island, Antarctica showed two separate extinction events near the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary 150,000 years from each other. 75% of plant and animal species on Earth became extinct
Although dating normally has a larger error period the Chicxulub impact crater was precision dated and does not correspond with the KT boundary. Currently the KT boundary date seems to have moved to 66 million years to make it fit. The Chicxulub impact did cause its own extinction earlier but could have been overrun by the Shiva impact
The hypothesis by Sankar Chatterjee, a paleontologist at Texas Tech University in Lubbock claims it was multiple impacts with the Shiva impact that created the KT boundary event. This can be concluded from the K-T clay boundary layer in India that is one meter thick – the thickest in the world. It also fit the time the Indian plate started speeding up to a speed not associated with plate tectonics.
The impact position and timeframe fit the spike of volcanism at the Deccan traps. However a problem for precision dating the Shiva crater arises due to the oil companies and the Indian government controlling the site where Shiva is located, and access is extremely limited.
