We review available data constraining the extent, volume, age and duration of all major
Phanerozoic continental flood basalts (CFB or traps) and oceanic plateaus (OP), together …

Extremely voluminous magmatic systems known as large igneous provinces (LIPs)
punctuate Earth's history, and the gases they release plausibly link large-scale geodynamic …

Bolide impact and flood volcanism compete as leading candidates for the cause of terminal-
Cretaceous mass extinctions. High-precision 40Ar/39Ar data indicate that these two …

The internal architecture of the immense volumes of eruptive products in Continental Flood
Basalt Provinces (CFBPs) provides vital clues, through the constraint of a chrono …

The timing and duration of surface uplift associated with large igneous provinces provide
important constraints on mantle convection processes. Here we review geological indicators …

The Siberian Traps large igneous province is of enormous size (~ 7× 106km2) and volume
(~ 4× 106km3). It contains effusive, intrusive and volcanoclastic rocks varying in …

This is the first detailed report and analyses of deformation from the W part of the Deccan
large igneous province (DLIP), Maharashtra, India. This deformation, related to the India …

Three large dike systems are exposed in the Deccan Traps flood basalt province of India:
the dominantly north–south-trending west coast swarm, the east–west-trending Narmada …

The location, ages, and geochemical characteristics of marine volcanic rocks preserved in
the South Tethyan suture zone of Pakistan suggest that the Réunion hotspot was active off …

Abstract The Deccan Volcanic Province (DVP), covering presently an area of 0.5 million km
2, and estimated to be 2–3 times larger during the Upper Cretaceous-Paleocene, is one of …
