The Late Devonian mass extinction was one of the five largest mass extinction events in the history of life, said Professor Johnny Waters, who is a co-leader of the five-year, U.N. International Geoscience Programme project that began in 2011.
Magmatism was suggested as a cause of the Late Devonian extinction in 2002. The end of the Devonian Period was a time of extremely widespread trap magmatism and rifting in the Russian and Siberian platforms, which were situated above the hot mantle plumes and suggested as a cause of the Frasnian/Famennian and end Devonian extinctions.
