Cretaceous Pulse of Spreading


Cretaceous Pulse of Spreading : During the Cretaceous period (124-83 Ma) when there was no geomagnetic reversal, sea-floor spreading was 50-75% faster than in other periods. This phenomenon is interpreted as caused by mantle superplume activity. See: Uyeda (2002), and Larson (1991)
