  abstract = {<p>Due to the discussion of global catastrophic events at the Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT) boundary based on various reason e.g. [1], [2], [3], [4] and to controversial discussion on the faunal extinction based on high-resolution biostratigraphic investigations e.g. [5], [6] studies to investigate the climate record of the last million years of the Maastrichtian became important.</p>

<p>Stable isotope studies of deep sea sites in the Pacific and South Atlantic reveal a terminal Cretaceous warm event as a distinct 2-3o C warming of intermediate waters across latitudes and a 2-3o C warming in surface waters in middle and high southern latitudes [7]. The well documented long-term cooling trend that characterizes the late Cretaceous was terminated by a short-term warming followed by a rapid cooling near the end of the Maastrichtian 100-200 kyr before the KT boundary [8], [9].</p>

<p>However, different sample resolution, condensed or erosional sedimentation, short-term hiatuses, bioturbation, diagenetic alteration etc. makes a highresolution chemostratigraphy necessary to determine the nature of this terminal Cretaceous warm event and the cooling shortly below the KT boundary.</p>

<p>Climate and depositional variations during the last 570 000 years of Late Maastrichtian are presented for a 26 m long ELLES section on the base of a highresolution chemostratigraphy (d13 C, d18 O isotopes andCa-normalized Sr gradients).\&nbsp; <a href="https://geoweb.princeton.edu/research/keller/pubs/Stueben-2002-PalPP.pdf" target="_blank">PDF</a></p>
