Abstract

The Deccan Volcanic Province is one of the world's largest continental flood basalt provinces, and derives additional importance because its eruptions (64–67 Ma) straddle the Cretaceous–Tertiary boundary. To better assess the environmental impact of Deccan volcanism, and its possible effect upon Cretaceous–Tertiary boundary biota, it is necessary to document the stratigraphy, chronology and volume of the eruptions. New chemostratigraphical data permit mapping of the SE Deccan. These data strengthen the likelihood that the Rajahmundry Traps of eastern India were originally fed by long-distance flows, and are an extension of the Main Deccan Volcanic Province. An east–west cross-section reveals a depression or ‘moat’ around the SE periphery of the Deccan Volcanic Province. This provided a site in which shallow lakes initially formed, and along which later lava eruptions became channelled and confined. Published palaeomagnetic data indicate that the lavas of the SE Deccan were erupted during Chron 29R, coeval with the Cretaceous–Tertiary boundary, and the chemostratigraphic data place the associated lake sediments (i.e. Lameta Group) beneath and within lavas of the Wai Subgroup. Finally, these new map data are combined with previous work to provide a quantitative estimate for the original Deccan Volcanic Province eruptive volume of c . 1.3 × 10 6 km 3 .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
