Reduced contribution of sulfur to the mass extinction associated with the Chicxulub impact event - Nature Communications

| Nature Verified
Abstract The Chicxulub asteroid impact event at the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary ~66 Myr ago is widely considered responsible for the mass extinction event leading to the demise of the non-avian dinosaurs. Short-term cooling due to massive release of climate-active agents is hypothesized to have been crucial, with S-bearing gases originating from the target rock vaporization considered an important driving force. Yet, the magnitude of the S release remains poorly constrained.

Chicxulub impact winter sustained by fine silicate dust - Nature Geoscience

|
By Pim Kaskes, Johan Vellekoop, Steven Goderis, Philippe Claeys, Cem Berk Senel, Maarten A. Prins
| Nature Verified
Abstract The Chicxulub impact is thought to have triggered a global winter at the Cretaceous-Palaeogene (K-Pg) boundary 66 million years ago. Yet the climatic consequences of the various debris injected into the atmosphere following the Chicxulub impact remain unclear, and the exact killing mechanisms of the K-Pg mass extinction remain poorly constrained.
