Figure F2. Generalized climate curve for the Cretaceous and Paleogene derived from deep-sea benthic oxygen isotope data (from Zachos et al., 1993, 2001). Also shown are locations of events discussed including Eocene/Oligocene transition, Paleocene/Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), late Paleocene biotic event, Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary (K/T), mid-Maastrichtian event (MME), and early Aptian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE1a) (modified from Bralower, Premoli Silva, Malone, et al., 2002).
