Massive methane fluxing from magma–sediment interaction in the end-Triassic Central Atlantic Magmatic Province

Massive methane fluxing from magma–sediment interaction in the end-Triassic Central Atlantic Magmatic Province

Global climate changes triggered by massive output of greenhouse gases led to mass extinctions in Earth’s past. Here, the authors show that widespread release of methane at the time of the end-Triassic mass extinction was caused by interaction of a Large Igneous Province with sedimentary host-rocks....
