Equatorward phytoplankton migration during a cold spell within the Late Cretaceous super-greenhouse [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE2), a ∼ 600 kyr episode close to the Cenomanian–Turonian boundary (ca. 94 Ma), is characterized by relatively widespread marine anoxia and ranks amongst the warmest intervals of the Phanerozoic.

Ecological response to collapse of the biological pump following the mass extinction at the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2017 It is commonly accepted that the mass extinction associated with the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) boundary (∼ 66 Ma) is related to the environmental effects of a large extraterrestrial impact.
